This is a story about a boy named Kester. He is extraordinary, but he doesn’t know that yet. All he knows, at this very moment, is this:

1. There is a flock of excited pigeons in his bedroom.

2. They are talking to him.

3. His life will never be quite the same again…

Reviews

The Guardian
An amazing story
Good Housekeeping
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
New York Post
A must-read: brings to mind the smarts and silliness of Roald Dahl.
Samuel H. (aged 10)
A magnetic adventure ... find yourself glued like tar to this satisfying, spine-tingling book.
The Times
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.
Guardian Children's website
I haven't read a book this good and interesting since The Hunger Games ... an edge-of-your-seat fast-paced read.
Eva Ibbotson
Splendid stuff
Frank Cottrell Boyce
Wildly inventive, moving and gripping.
Katherine Rundell
Full of suspense without ever sacrificing warmth.
The Financial Times
An excellent, punchy adventure tale with vivid characters and an impassioned eco message.
Eoin Colfer
A darkly comic and hugely inventive adventure ... it could be the next big thing.
Sunday Times
Inventive, with laughs, tears and cliffhangers.
Francesca Simon
Gripping, original and memorable.
Observer
The sequel had better come soon.
