This book is my favorite in the series after Wolfsong. I did not care much about Robbie before reading this story, but his story was definitely very touching. Having everything you’ve ever wanted stripped away from you and dealing with that fact once you find out all that you’ve lost made for an engaging read. I’ve cried on several occasions while reading this book.
