Reviews
Inventive, with laughs, tears and cliffhangers.
An excellent, punchy adventure tale with vivid characters and an impassioned eco message.
A magnetic adventure ... find yourself glued like tar to this satisfying, spine-tingling book.
The sequel had better come soon.
An amazing story
A brilliantly written adventure that is great for starting discussions about extinction and what we can do to prevent it, and the importance of biodiversity
Wildly inventive, moving and gripping.
Full of suspense without ever sacrificing warmth.
I haven't read a book this good and interesting since The Hunger Games ... an edge-of-your-seat fast-paced read.
Splendid stuff
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 must-read: brings to mind the smarts and silliness of Roald Dahl.
A darkly comic and hugely inventive adventure ... it could be the next big thing.
Gripping, original and memorable.
