Book Review: The Grizzly King by James Oliver Curwood

Also known as The Bear. 

And here I thought I was done reviewing Curwood's xenofictions. Guess not. It does help that this book (and his other works) is available for free due to being public domain. Spoilers ahead!

Book Review: Swift Lightning by James Oliver Curwood

 

This is one of these books I've reviewed before, but due to me never being content with my old reviews I keep re-reviewing. This has to be my third time now. Anyways, let's dive in, spoilers ahead!

Book Review: Nomads of the North by James Oliver Curwood

Another one of the Curwood books that is included in the omnibus I own. Yet another xenofiction by him, except that this one follows a dog and a bear! Spoilers ahead.

Book Review: Back to God's Country by James Oliver Curwood

 

I originally didn't intend to review this story as I don't have fond memories of it, but since it's in the Curwood omnibus I own I might as well. This is the short story originally published as Wapi the Walrus, later renamed Back to God's Country. Spoilers ahead.

Book Review: Baree, Son of Kazan by James Oliver Curwood (Kazan and Baree #2)

 

I recently took a look at Kazan by James Oliver Curwood, so I figured I might as well review the sequel, which focuses on the son of Kazan. Spoilers ahead.

Book Review: Kazan by James Oliver Curwood (Kazan and Baree #1)

 

Chances are that if you are familiar with any type of wolf xenofiction at all, you've heard of Jack London's Call of the Wild and/or White Fang, both stories focusing on (wolf)dogs in the cold North during the late 1800s/early 1900s. There are some similarities between his works and Curwood's, with Curwood possibly being inspired by London's writing. So let's take a look at one of those! Spoilers ahead.
