Review:
"A powerful read . . . A raw and sombre struggle for survival, suffused with a vivid evocation of nature" (The Bookseller)
"A darkly atmospheric thriller with a cast of murderous wild animals... the rich dark feel of the descriptive writing is magnificently reflected in the linear rhythms and velvety, crepuscular tones of Andrew Davidson's wood engravings" (Guardian)
"For his insights into nature and his vivid descriptions of them, Dick King-Smith is an exceptional writer. In the new, more sober voice of Godhanger, he shows just what a good storyteller and writer he is" (Julia Eccleshare Books for Keeps)
"Beautifully illustrated . . . The reader is left with greater knowledge of nature as well as the satisfaction of a really good read" (The Times)
