Book Reviews of A Companion to Wolves
Book Review: A Companion to Wolves is Fantastic!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is one of the best books I have read in years. The character development, the angst of the main character, the twist of the male on male relationships. Certainly it's not a novel for anyone who can't be described as an openminded adult but it is an absolutely incredible book. I don't really agree with the reviewer that labelled the sex scenes as gang rape. Is it rape if the person enters into it willingly, though with trepidation? To me the book's examination of homophobia and the young man's coming to terms with his own ideas of honor is one of the best parts of the book. Whatever a person may think of the sexual violence, it was an intergral part of the story. I couldn't put the book down after I started it, finished it in less than 24 hours. I do agree with the complaint about the tongue-twisting names. It would be easier to keep them all straight if the wolf names were distinctively different from the names of the men, but that really is my only complaint. If you are an adult with an open mind and don't have an aversion to a dark sexual component in a story then I would highly recommend this book.
