Format:Paperback
This is a beautifully written, clever, subtle novel. It's very different from the writer's work as Robin Hobb - and yet the theme of a man/wolf bond, the tall, black-haired, complex hero, certainly do point to her later work. It's refreshingly different from the run of the mill fantasy 'adventure', which would please some, disappoint others. As a sequel to 'The Reindeer People', it ties all the ends up neatly. Common to the writers work as Robin Hobb, you're left thinking about the issues raised, and with affection for the characters created. On the downside, I do think this and 'The Reindeer People' would have been much better presented as one novel. However, on the strength of this novel I do intend to read all the Megan Lindholm novels as they are republished - whilst eagerly waiting for the next Robin Hobb trilogy!!

The conclusion to The Reindeer People sees the development of this intense story. Megan Lindolm's skill at making magic seem real is once again seen in action. If you like natural magic (shamanism), weird intense kids for heros (the shaman's apprentice) and native american folklore, this is the book for you! A great staisfying ending too!

For anyone who doesn't know Megan Lindholm and Robin Hobb are the same person. So from that it should come as little suprise that this book expands upon themes that croppoed up in Robin Hobbs Assasin Trilogy
Expanding upon the use of the Wit and the pack relationship this book follows a young boy on both a journey of self discovery and a coming of age as he and his mother travel with their steps dogged by as evil a villain as you could wish in the old shaman (indeed if there's a fault to this book it lies in the stereotypical nature of the villan)
If you've enjoyed Robin Hobb then you must pick this up if you've yet to experience it then this and Alien Earth are the places to start

Megan Lindholm duo
This book, Wolf's Brother, is the 2nd Megan Lindholm books I've read. The first was Reindeer People. Both of them were very good, plenty of detail, description, and feelings. Read more

I really enjoyed this book. The awakening of the specialised shamanistic powers, previously untapped in young Najd Kerlew is a really engrossing plot-thread that Lindholm has... Read more
