Dark Matter By Michelle Paver

I read this November 2011
Why: Waterstone's book club read for December
what I thought of it: one word - Haunting
Michelle Paver has written children's books before. Tis one set against the backdrop of the high Arctic, 1930's just before WWII a haunting ghostly tale.
I liked the easy way it was written, without too much technical content just for the sake of adding it in. Human (and not so human) emotions - a scary presence on the ice.
The portrayals of the dogs were very similar to Call of the Wild.
I also liked the ending, very non traditional ghost story ending.
8/10
I would like to read more of Michelle's work and have got a copy of Oath Breaker to read
Have you read dark Matter? what did you think of it?
