Cold The Night, Fast the Wolves by Meg Long

released Jan 11 2022

Meg Long’s Cold the Night, Fast the Wolves is a captivating debut about survival, found family, and the bond between a girl and a wolf that delivers a fresh twist on classic survival stories and frontier myths.

On a frozen wasteland of a planet, a girl is on the run with a wolf who is born to be a killer but bound to be her guide. As they fight to escape ice goblins, giant bears, and a ruthless leader intent on trapping them both, one question drives them relentlessly forward: where do you turn when there is nowhere to hide?

Review

I really liked the race aspect of this story.. its dog sled racing to the max.. Theres sabatoge, and winter storms, and crazy preditory animals that make this race super dangerous.. Its pretty fast paced, especially once the race starts, and with all the things that can kill you during it popping up all over the place it really keeps you on your toes wondering how they are going to survive whats going to happen next. Sena doesn’t trust anyone or anything so I really loved seeing start to trust the other people in her team, and really bond with Iska. (Iska is my favorite)
