The Great Timbers

A Novel

De: James A. Kane, Rusty Ogre Publishing

Narrado por: Erik Gamborg

When poachers invade an idyllic Wyoming meadow to scout the perfect location to build a lucrative hunting lodge, the animals' lives are forever changed. Marred by the harrowing intrusion, the grieving society of woodland creatures must summon the courage to unite, predators and prey alike, to protect their majestic utopia from the rifle-toting men.

Set in the scenic Rocky Mountains, The Great Timbers is a spellbinding story about friendship, loss, dignity, loyalty and war. It is a poignant piece of literary animal fiction in the spirit of the Richard Adams' classic Watership Down, George Orwell's The Animal Farm, or Johnathan Durham's Winterset Hollow.

Full of heart, The Great Timbers is a captivating and timeless animal adventure in which the hunters have just become the hunted.

The forest animals fight back

Beware of where you go if your intent is to hunt for sport in the great forest. Animals may have trained to not only defend themselves from other animals. They may have also learned to take on humans - and win.

Will look for other books by this author and narrator.

What a surprise

I really liked this novella. I honestly laughed, cried, became angry, and felt happy while listening. A great book for YA and Adults.

One of my all time favorite books.

I am a big animal lover and as a hunter myself from an inlawed family of hunters, I loved the look at poaching in this book purely because it taps into the adrenaline-filled instinct to claim a nice animal that is out of season. Ethical hunters obviously don't do that as we all know, but I love that these dynamic characters gave into temptation and then the wildlife got their revenge. It's an good versus evil tale where the animals fight back. It was a unique experience from a perspective I never really thought of before.

I thought it was well researched, well executed and I LOVED the narrator's voice in the audiobook version. Overall, one of my all-time favorite books.
