Reviews
Full of suspense without ever sacrificing warmth.
Written in vivid and urgent style ... As thrilling as James and the Giant Peach ... The Last Wild may be as critical to the new generation as Tarka the Otter.
A darkly comic and hugely inventive adventure ... it could be the next big thing.
Wildly inventive, moving and gripping.
A must-read: brings to mind the smarts and silliness of Roald Dahl.
Gripping, original and memorable.
Splendid stuff
The sequel had better come soon.
A magnetic adventure ... find yourself glued like tar to this satisfying, spine-tingling book.
An excellent, punchy adventure tale with vivid characters and an impassioned eco message.
An amazing story
Inventive, with laughs, tears and cliffhangers.
I haven't read a book this good and interesting since The Hunger Games ... an edge-of-your-seat fast-paced read.
