Review: Beautiful and inspiring tale for cat lovers

Though aimed at children, this fantasy tale is great for adults too. As a cat lover myself, I found the portrayal of the bond between Angelica the cat and the lead character Aric really leapt off the page. This is what captivated me and kept me wanting to read more. I also found it an inspiring and original story due to its Ice Age setting, which I don't think is an era very often explored in books, especially in books aimed at children.Due to the vivid descriptions of the harsh reality of living during that era, however, I feel that it is more suitable for older children rather than younger readers.Other than that, it's a lovely story, beautifully told, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I'm certainly looking forward to the next book!Marie Symeou, author ofA Forever Home For Athena
