But the story, the sorrow of their past, and the trauma they’ve been through, and the race-against-the-clock element of Mark getting infected by the mysterious Omega disease. It’s just so well done. I didn’t know how to feel, even though I was rooting for them to find a way to save him.
As always, I love these wolves with all my heart, but Gordo is one hell of a witch, and this story shines so bright from his narrative. An excellent story, even the second time around. I loved every minute of it.

Gordo is just 🥺🥺 grumpiest bean he deserves so many hugs. I miss Ox's pov and I always will but this next step in the story was a really brilliant journey. The omega stuff is such a fascinating twist and OF COURSE OX IS THE ALPHA TO THE OMEGAS HIS HEART IS THE BIGGEST AND BEST😭😭😭

I found Ravensong followed closer to a plot-based narrative, but still retained the poetic elements of what made Wolfsong unique. Because it is definitely a unique narrative style that I don’t know is for everyone. The use of repetition, jumping between past & present, dialogue among pack bonds, and alternative sentence structure all contribute to such an impactful story of belonging, family, love, heartbreak, and always <i>packpackpack</i>
Ravensong opens the door to Gordo’s backstory. We know there’s some traumatic history based on his actions in Wolfsong, and we get the full, horribly heartbreaking scope of things surrounding his relationship with Mark, and the pack as a whole. I loved the focus on an older couple and we get some great scenes of comic relief from the “Team Human” shop guys.
In short - absolutely fantastic.
