Very Simply Written

I thoroughly enjoyed White Fang- partly for the story and partly for the "straight-to-the-point" writing style. The plot was interesting albeit slow in a way where you knew what was going to happen well before it happened. The events and timeline each had their purpose in the story, but the process of getting from one point to the next felt slow due to its predictability. My only other gripe with this book was the author's attempt to write about nature. As someone who reads a lot of books on nature by authors such as Gary Paulsen and John Muir, I could tell Jack London spent little time in the woods. He just couldn't present the descriptive elements or "feel-like-you're-there" imagery like John Muir, or encapsulate the mentality of respect for nature like Gary Paulsen. Obviously that's a subjective gripe for the book, but good imagery is needed in a book that takes place mostly in the wild.

What a good surprise this one was..

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes. Great story, well written, good pace and well narrated. A worthy read!

What did you like best about this story?

I wasn't quite sure of what to expect before starting. Soon after starting it was clear that it was something very good. In my opinion, an excellent story, very well told. I was "hooked" till the end.

White Fang

White Fang is a great story, I have read a lot of adventurous books in my life and this book was one of the best books out there. There is a lot of action in the this book which I love, if you love the outdoors like me I highly recommend this book to anyone who enjoys books like this one!

A Masterpiece

Narrated perfectly. The story is a masterpiece. Awesome illustration of nature's greatest animal. Also a study in human behavior and loyalty.

Very glad that I bought this

London found a surprisingly good forum to demonstrate his psychological insight, and I believe that my own insights are expanded from having listened to this audiobook. My only complaint is that it ends somewhat abruptly and inconclusively.
