A Companion to Wolves by Elizabeth Bear, Sarah Monette
4.0
adventurous emotional hopeful tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

This book is basically two things. The first is a strong desire to think about the setting/vibe of Beowulf. The second is a desire to critique and rework Anne McCaffrey's Dragonriders of Pern, but with wolves. Specifically the bit about dragon mating.
It works extremely well.
