Resumen del Editor

From the author of The Horse Whisperer comes the phenomenal number one New York Times best seller, an extraordinary new novel of love, family, and man's struggle with the wild.

A pack of wolves makes a sudden savage return to the Rocky Mountain ranching town of Hope, Montana, where a century earlier they were slaughtered by the thousands. Biologist Helen Ross has come to Hope from the East, fleeing a life in shambles, determined to save the wolves from those who seek to destroy them.

But an ancient hatred awaits her in Hope, a hatred that will tear apart a family and ultimately the community. And soon Helen is at the center of the storm, by loving the wrong man, by defying the wrong man...by daring to lead a town out of the violent darkness of its past....

Riveting story of wolves vs man

This story about the conflict between ranchers and wolves was mesmerizing. It’s a war. I felt bad for the wolves. Imagine a town with a ride built on wolf skulls. The town called Hope.

A REALLY.NICE STORY

I liked this book very much. It has a good plotline with good characters. The tension.is pretty.intense at times but overall a good read.

Good Book by Nicholas Evans

I found this book to be both entertaining and informative. I love the story-telling skills of Nicholas Evans. This book had every element needed to keep the reader eagerly anticipating each new turn in the story. I gave this one 4 stars.

great story. poor narration and editing

the narration/editing leave MUCH to be desired. many paragraphs read twice due to editing errors.

Made me feel Wolf Smart

What did you love best about The Loop?

I loved that The Loop gave facts about an on going issue in a story that was easy to listen to. I appreciated the real issue that was incorporated.

What other book might you compare The Loop to and why?

I might compare this book to Barbra Kingsolver's "Flight Behavior" because of the real life environmental concern.

Did John Bedford Lloyd do a good job differentiating all the characters? How?

I loved listening to this book on audible because I felt like John Bedford Lloyd did an amazing job at differentiating all the characters. The voice of the characters make them more alive than ever and bring more personality to each character

If you could rename The Loop, what would you call it?

The Loop is really a great title for this book. I suppose if I were to rename it I may call it "Wolf Slaughter."

Any additional comments?

I think I would have enjoyed this story more if the author would have concentrated a little more on wolves. I enjoyed the love story, but it was not my favorite part of the story.

liked it as much as the first time

I listened to this title about 10 years ago. had forgotten much h of the story.but remembered I had really enjoyed it. It proved just as good this time around

More than a wolf story

This is a story about wolves; those who revere them and those who hate them. It will hold your interest from beginning to end. But the deeper story is about discrimination. How humans jump to conclusions and pass it on from generation to generation without scrutiny. This could have been about race or religious discrimination. You'll particularly find disgust in the loop used to trap pups and lure the adults. I think your emotions will come out and I think you will enjoy the book.

Evans never fails

I think I have read everything Evans has written and I can say that he has never written anything that can bore any reader. He has he most amazing insight
Into human and animal soul and mind. Every time I read one of his books I have only one question. Mr. Evans will you marry me?

Awesome!

love all Evans' books except the Divide. This book is fabulous. The narrator is great as well.

Wolves' Lives

The book was great, just wished that there was more info on the wolves' lives.
