The Tiger and the Wolf by Adrian Tchaikovsky

4.0

I have to admit that I picked this book up mainly due to the stunning cover. The book itself did not disappoint, though. It is definitely quite slow at points as there is a lot of world building and other information that needs to be told. Having said that, I never felt bogged down by all the information. It was all necessary - it just set a bit of a slower reading pace. I love the setting of this book, with tribes that can 'step' into different animals. I also loved the main character, Maniye. She is such an interesting and complex character. The other characters are also extremely well written and I loved that all the characters have some mannerisms or indication of the animal they are linked to. The diversity of this book is great - there are so many different tribes and different beliefs. I really enjoyed finding out about them all. I very much enjoyed this book and I will definitely be continuing on with this series.
