Run Swift, Run Free

Run Wild #3

by Tom McCaughren

Summer has arrived in the Land of Sinna, and Black Tip and Vickey's cubs are growing up. Life is very exciting but it's also hard - the cubs have to learn the ways of the wild, how to stand up to other hunters and how to defeat their enemy, the trapper. With the help of all their friends in the valley, especially the wise old blind fox, Old Sage Brush, the young foxes learn to survive - but will they be able to fend for themselves, and run swift, run free?

[Fionn · Rating 5 out of 5]

A beautiful and timeless story (book 3), if you are reading it to young children be careful as with its predecessors it can be quite visceral at times but it is sublimely written especially for enthusiasts of the natural world - the author educates the reader with his in depth knowledge of Irish flora and fauna throughout the seasons

Not much to say about this. It just continues the story, although I liked this one a bit better than its predecessor, Run To Earth.
