It was a white mans gun that killed Kivvik, and the man took the hide from his body. And later it was the wolverine who ate the flesh and broke the bones to suck out the marrow. But they did not take the spirit of Kivvik, the great white wolf.

Kivviks spirit avenges and cleanses the land of Ross, the hunter from airplanes for sport, and of the wolverine, the reckless killer. Kivviks spirit gives strength and direction to his grandson, Amitok. Amitok, once the runt of his litter is rewarded for his intellect, curiosity, and obedience to the code of the land and his clan. At one with his spirit, Amitok grows from a bewildered pup into a great white wolf able to follow Kivvik.

It is when Amitok and Kivvik come to interact with the men who inhabit this barren land that their story becomes a Legend of the North.

This is a mighty fable, a major legend of the Inuit that Sullivans command of the weight and tempo of precise words orchestrates into epic clarity of inner thoughts and external visuals.
