This is my favorite novel and you did such a wonderful job of going over what you liked without spoiling anything! One of the things that has really struck me over the years, reading it multiple times, is that it has a lot of subtext if you're looking for it, while still being incredibly entertaining without picking up on any of London's politics. Hopefully more people pick this one up and don't disregard older works. Great review.
Thank you for the kind words! I’m very glad you enjoyed the review. I definitely feel like this will be one that I will revisit quite frequently. As it was such a wonderfully told story that takes place in a vast and interesting landscape. If you have any recommendations (be it from Jack London or other authors), I’d be very curious to hear them!
@@thecaribbeanbookworm5066 I will stick with Jack London for some recommendations! If you liked The Call of the Wild's: setting/non-human character, read White Fang. Also focused on a canine. adventure, read The Sea-Wolf. It's like Moby Dick but a much faster read, and a lot of tropes you see in literature today start here. If you want something very different and experimental, The Iron Heel. It's dystopian and is a fascinating look at where he thought the world was going before WWI.
@@mastuhman these are all quite interesting! White Fang was definitely already on my to-be-read list. However, you intrigued me with The Sea-Wolf as well as The Iron Heel! I will give these a read. Thank you!
A good friend of my lend me a book once called "The Martian by Andy Weir" while we were in high school (MIL); Have you done a review on this book already? P.S. Amazing book review btw. Very proud of you my brother
Thanks Gabriel! Hope all is going well! I have not done The Martian yet man. But I should give it a go. As I want to get more into sci-fi this summer. Starting with the Dune books. So we will see!
