Ready 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!

A 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

Back half kinda loses me but the Wolf Larsen character is worth four stars alone.
Not London’s best.

Not 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!

This 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.

What a book! High adventure on the high seas. Deep psychology. And what a dark, twisted nemesis in Wolf Larsen. Unforgettable.
