With a name like 'Romeo' and the constant tension while he continued to escape death, it was clear that he would not survive til the end of the book. However, the way in which is happened was deplorable and the emotionality of it took me by surprise.

The author keeps a great balance between an obvious preservation mindset and the justified fears the wolf (initially) brings to the community. The little facts about wolves throughout the book were also neat but it just wasn't my type of book.
