"So far, this book is interesting. The first chapters are about the trials, tribulations and successes of the people working for the red wolf program, as well as some of the wolves themselves. Chapter seven is covering the people living in the Ablemarle and their perceptions of the wolves and the recovery program." — Dec 03, 2021 07:24PM

"I picked this one up to skim while waiting and ended up reading the first 18 pages.

I have only one peeve so far. The author seems knowledgeable, but falls for the "superiority of modern ways." Old (shamanism, magic, etc) = emotional, superstitious, not much to offer. New (from the Renaissance on) = rational, superior, the one true way." — Sep 24, 2021 12:19PM

“Let me through – I’m a doctor.’ My heart beat a little faster, and I lingered just long enough to be sure he’d used the indefinite article. But the man was short and bald and rather ugly – not at all like any Doctor I’d consult. I hope. If ‘consult’ is the right word.”

“I’m an author. We don’t want to lead. We don’t need to follow. We stay home and make stuff up and write it down and send it out into the world, and get inside people’s heads. Perhaps we change the world and perhaps we don’t. We never know. We just make stuff up.”
― Neil Gaiman
