A review by msjenne
Promise of the Wolves by Dorothy Hearst
3.0
You know, I didn't actually hate this. When I got it in the mail to review, I kind of went "oh god, not some damn book about talking animals," but it was really pretty interesting. Definitely an easy read*, and clearly sets up a sequel, but a lot better than I expected.
If you're going to read one anthropomorphic-wolf novel this year, it should probably be [b:A Companion to Wolves|333356|A Companion to Wolves (Iskryne World, #1)|Sarah Monette|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1312035520l/333356._SY75_.jpg|2703562] by Sarah Monette and Elizabeth Bear, but if you have it in you to read another one, this wouldn't be a complete waste of time.
Oh and also, it has a blurb from [a:Temple Grandin|1567|Temple Grandin|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1241222068p2/1567.jpg], so she must have gotten the wolf pack behavior stuff right.
*Also, for my teen librarian friends out there, this would be a great crossover book for YA readers. In fact, I'm not sure why they didn't just publish it as a YA novel in the first place.
