I wanted so badly to read this book as I have read so many great reviews of it as a seminal work of sci-fi. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it beyond the first few chapters. The idea of a planet inhabited by intelligent wolves is intriguing. However, I couldn't figure out why wolves that walk on 4 legs would use weapons such a bow and arrow that are designed to be used by an animal with 2 hands. They end up having to "team up" in order to operate the bow. Why wouldn't they just develop a better weapon more suited for a dog? Just didn't make sense and I couldn't dedicate my time to such nonsense.
