The law of club and fang<br />

My girlfriend lives on Third St. in SF close to where Jack London was born. And recently I've taken a big Bay area interest. This audio book was my introduction to Heinold's Saloon's honored apparition. And if if Buck could choose only one narrator to read his story, my money is on this performance.

Great Story but the Narrator is Excruciating

The narrator must be paid by the minute because she reads at a painfully excruciatingly slow pace. I had to set the speed at 1.25 to get it to sound normal.

Amazing reading and writing.

Beautifully read, thoughtfully descriptive story of a domesticated dog that goes on to become powerful husky pack leader. His extremely different lifestyles, from one owner to the next.

Good book!

This is a great book but I wouldn’t recommend listening to it with young children because it’s a bit violent

Dog lovers....this is IT !!!

As a tame but powerful dog...Buck....adapts to the harsh life of the Alaska gold rush, he learns survival lessons that eclipse the civilized life he led before being dog-napped and sold into dog slavery. He learns that life is a Darwinian struggle in the frozen north, and that it takes both strength and cunning to survive.

If you love dogs, you will love this excellent tale of a dog who adapts, survives, and wins the struggle of life in the harsh, frozen, and heartless frozen North....a dog who eventually wins the love of and the love for a man.

Engaging

It’s been years since I last read this book. I really enjoyed it. I felt the narrator was engaging as well.
