Reviews

A treacherous journey and quest for survival - one to pick up, time and time again

—— The Guardian

Beautifully evoking the Berkshire countryside in poetic language, it is an exciting, moving and powerful novel.

—— Book Trust

Beautifully written with some of the best characterisation you'll come across in children's literature, it tells the story of a group of rabbits and their will to survive despite human attempts to do otherwise. Full of adventure, humour, excitement and sadness it will enthral as much now as it did when it was first published

—— LoveReading4Kids

Robert Swindells writes the kinds of books that are so scary you're afraid to turn the page

—— Sunday Telegraph

It is an intelligent, original and compelling novel

—— Simon Treacy , Cork Evening Echo

A compelling, compulsive, atmospheric story . . . The movie is already rolling in my head

—— Niall MacMonagle , Irish Times

Zips along at break-neck pace, each short, action-packed scene feeding into the next, ideal for teen readers with Playstation attention spans . . . McGann's direct, gritty style of writing certainly packs a punch

—— Sarah Webb , Irish Independent
