The Call of the Wild

This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice. Buck is a big, easygoing dog living on a ranch in California's Santa Clara Valley. He is half Saint Bernard, half Scotch shepherd, and he has never known cold, hunger, or a hand raised in anger.

Then men who need money for a Klondike grubstake steal him, and Buck is shipped north in a crate, beaten into obedience with a club, and sold into the sled traces. What waits for him is the Yukon in the middle of the gold rush: forty below zero, thin ice, starving dogs, and a hundred miles a day hauling mail.

Jack London's 1903 novel follows Buck as the soft civilized dog is stripped away layer by layer and something older comes awake underneath — the thing that remembers wolves, and the deep woods, and a call heard at night that he cannot explain and cannot ignore.

It is a short book about a dog that is also one of the hardest novels ever written about work, hunger, and the cost of belonging. This unabridged recording presents the complete text, narrated by Alex Mercer.
