About this listen

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...

Critic Reviews

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