Fire Bringer by David Clement-Davies
Excellent And Shocking
Young buck Rannoch was born on the night his father was murdered and
into a herd of deer where hunger for power has gradually whittled away at
all that is true and good. He knows he must escape to survive. Chased by
stags, with their fearsome antlers sharpened for the kill, he begins a
treacherous journey into the unknown, and ahead of him lies a shocking
and formidable search for truth and goodwill in the shadow of the Great
Mountain. One day he will have to return to his home and face his
destiny among the deer to fulfill the prophecy that has persistently given
them hope: that one day a fawn will be born with the mark of an oak leaf
on his forehead and that fawns courage will lead all the deer to freedom.
Filled with passion and a darkness that gradually, through Rannochs
courage in the face of adversity, lifts to reveal an overwhelming feeling of
light, Fire Bringer is a tremendous, spirited story that takes the reader
deep into the hearts and minds of its characters as they fight for their right
to live in peace. Well-written and brimming with a gutsy excitement that
leaps off the page and straight into the imagination, David Clement-
Daviess debut novel for young readers is an exceptional, dynamic,
complex, and utterly absorbing piece of work that anyone with a tr ue love
of animals and adventure will find impossible to put down. (Ages 10 and
older) --Susan Harrison, Amazon.co.uk
As a fan of Watership Down and all tales of animals, this book naturally
appealed to me. I was pleasantly surprised at how gripping it is from the
first chapter. The story goes down paths so horrible and dark I found
myself caught up in the terror felt by the characters. Excellent read, and
cant wait for more!
