Wolf Winter
by Cecilia Ekbäck
I picked up "Wolf Winter" without knowing anything. The book is hard to categorize: It is part mystery, but it is not a mystery novel in the way of Agatha Christie, Tony Hillerman, P.D. James, etc. There is magic but not enough to call it a fantasy novel (and by no means urban fantasy which often combines mystery and fantasy). Readers picking the book up expecting a straight mystery or fantasy may be disappointed. Readers who like a Dickensian ending -- all tied up with the reader learning the fate of each character -- may also be disappointed as the book leaves a lot of lose ends. Personally, I really enjoyed "Wolf Winter."
