Dead in the water
1By freedomgrenadeGave up half way. The story drones on in repetition. Philosophical but the plot is not compelling. It’s no Call of the Wild.Best of the Best Adventure/Romance
5By NoCo JackReady to be taken on a grand sailing misadventure turned opportunity for self discovery and maturity via extreme hardship? Desiring to meet the devil himself clad in handsome human flesh? Holding out hope for the love of a lifetime despite having never been in love? Then give “The Sea Wolf” a go. Rich, deep, descriptive and powerfully enjoyable. A truly great read!Wolf Larson embodies everything that makes a great villain
5By PhysisicsA tense adventure featuring the most brutal and fascinating character in literature, Wolf Larson. Tip: Recommend reviewing a ship diagram and basic terminology while reading.Impressive
4By djmeccaBack half kinda loses me but the Wolf Larsen character is worth four stars alone.Not London’s best.
3By QueuemanNot as good as his other books. “Call of the Wild” and “White Fang” were much more compelling. I’d recommend them before this.High Jinks on the High Seas!
5By Bettyboop100This Jack London classic was full of action and intrigue. I would rate it PG 14 due to the violence and gory details depicted within. This ocean adventure was hard to put down, with edge of your seat action and wonderful romance. I highly recommend it and was sorry to see the end.Incredible
