Wolf’s Brother by Megan Lindholm

Synopsis:
As a group of reindeer herdspeople approach their summer grounds, simmering tensions and unspoken accusations bubble up with murderous results.

Review:
Wolf’s Brother is the completion of the story begun in The Reindeer People, and I was more than satisfied with the resolution.

While the book’s setting recalls Clan of the Cave Bear, the story itself focuses around what could be considered a murder mystery, and the genre-blending is what really kept me turning pages. Megan Lindholm brings the action to a thrilling climax that might be a bit too jam-packed, but I was invested in the journey of the characters so it worked for me.

I really hope that these two books come back in print. They deserve a wider audience.
