This is an absolutely fascinating #audiobook describing the real unlikely relationship the city of Juneau had for years with the titular black wolf that came to be called Romeo. It‘s beautiful, and heartbreaking. And best of all, the performer sounds just a little bit like Dennis Farina!! Great for #audiocoloring to, too!!

This book and couple of others inspired my love for Alaska. I was very touched by the story and the beautiful Alaskan scenery described in the book. I went to Juneau AK summer17, explored Mendenhall glacier and saw Romeo's exhibit in the visitor center. It was quite emotional. I missed Jans' book-signing in Juneau and emailed him about it. He remembered my story and signed another book (The Glacier Wolf) that I ordered from his store!

For six years, this big, beautiful, friendly black wolf interacted with the dogs and people of Juneau, Alaska. While there are parts to this story that will make your blood boil, the wonder and beauty of the wolf's relationship to the area, especially the canine residents, is heartwarming and delightful. A must read for canine enthusiasts.
