A teenage boy and an American pine marten each embark on the adventure of growing up in the award-winning YA novel by the author of Mink River.

Dave is fourteen years old, eager, and precocious. He is about to start high school, which is scary and alluring. Martin is a pine marten, a small, muscled hunter of the deep woods. He is about to leave home for the first time, which is scary and thrilling. Both of these wild animals are setting off into the bruising wilderness of love, life, wonder, and mystery.

As they undertake their separate adventures through Oregon's Mount Hood, their lives, paths, and trails will cross, weave, and blend. Martin Marten is a braided coming-of-age tale like no other, told in Brian Doyle's joyous, rollicking style.
