Title: Good environmentalism - indifferent writing
Product review: I liked the movie "The Horse Whisperer" and this was my first Nicholas Evans book. The writing is terribly patchy. Evans is at his best when writing about wolves, when he is able to engage the reader with some semblance of expression - but just about. The rest of the time, his writing is turgid at worst and passable at best. The love story, its development is really infantile. In his defence, he writes better than Nicholas Sparks though that is not saying much. I anticipate that the movie version (if it gets made) will be watchable as it will allow the wide sweep of Montana and the main protoganists (the wolves) to appear to better effect.
