To be honest, I wasn´t liking the book at the beginning. I believe it is too overly descriptive for my taste. I couldn´t find a plot in this story and found it too repetitive without going anywhere. The same "Buck's new owner" story and the lessons he learned that lead to the same thing: Life's is about being killed or killing to be able to survive and the law of "Claw and Fang." It was after I finished the book, when I realized how much Buck changed physically and mentally through time. The last chapter, in which the tragedy strikes, Buck's pain is what lead him to his new transformation and revelation. He's literally described not as a dog or a wolf, but as a monster who's somehow none of these two. Buck's a new level of predator. When the only thing that tied him to the human world and kept him from going all wild is taken away from him, he breaks the law of "Claw and Fang." He now domains humans, dogs, and at last, he's accepted by the wolves and joins their "Call of the Wild." I really enjoyed the way this book came to an end, and I believe this ending is what makes it a great book.
