Julie's Wolf Pack by Jean Craighead George

4.0

This was really enjoyable! The last of the Julie of the Wolves series is primarily told from the perspective of Kapu, the leader of the wolf pack that adopted Julie when she was lost on the tundra in the first book in series. It starts just before the final events in [b:Julie|122468|Julie (Julie of the Wolves, #2)|Jean Craighead George|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1386924081l/122468._SX50_.jpg|3386737] and continues through several seasons with the pack. Julie and her boyfriend and family make appearances and provide human perspective periodically on events, but it is really the story of the wolf pack. You learn much about wolves and pack life and death, the social and governance structure, how packs merge and break apart. You also learn of the dangers to a pack such as rabies. And of course the human threat, even from those studying not hunting. The ending is poetic and right.

I listened to the audio read by Christine Mason and it was good, far better than her reading of [b:Julie|122468|Julie (Julie of the Wolves, #2)|Jean Craighead George|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1386924081l/122468._SX50_.jpg|3386737]. It came with a marvelous bonus: an hour long conversation with the author! What a fascinating woman!
