Loved the whole idea of Löpa varg, to go into the mind of a wolf, and that the main character who does this has been leading a hunt  for years. The inner conflict that this creates is endlessly fascinating. It is beautifully written, capturing the accent of the main characters and the nearness of nature in their lives.

The ending was a bit pedestrian compared to the rest of the book - though very logical and realistic. Overall, loved this book. Short, dark and elegant.
