Recenzii

"Simpson's awareness of the divisions and dilemmas of a country under foreign occupation and the injustice and ruthlessness inherent in war itself, lifts this novel beyond run of the mill heroics" Books for Keeps 20070522 "The book is clearly the result of considerable research and enthusiasm. This will appeal to readers of 14 upwards, particularly boys. The relationship between the two contrasting brothers is strongly conveyed through dialogue" -- Sandra Bennett The School Librarian 20070501 "This book is written with an obvious understanding of how a young boy might feel as he tries to understand the events taking place around him. He is surrounded by adults who are having to kill and who are being killed, all for a cause which he does not understand and yet which at the same time hurts and confuses him" -- Marya Jansen-Gruber Through the Looking Glass 20070601 "A terrific romp, full of car chases, explosions, stiff upper lips and U-boats; fans of films starring Bruce Willis (or David Niven) should love it" -- Jo Klaces TES 20070921

Notă biografică

Craig Simpson is the author of twelve titles to date. After a long career in medical writing, Craig turned his hand to historical fiction, with his debut novel, Resistance, being published in 2007. It was followed by his highly acclaimed Special Operations series of wartime thrillers, the fist of which, Dogfight, won the Hampshire Book Award and was shortlisted for the Lancashire Book Award. There are now four titles in the series. More recently, Craig has written various short-format illustrated books for reluctant readers (EDGE published by Franklin Watts) and kept up his school visits with well over a hundred events under his belt. He has also appeared at various Literary festivals. Craig's latest novel, called Daniel, is a traditional swashbuckling adventure (published by Alsvith Books) and was shortlisted for the UK's Young Quills Award in 2016. A UK school tour with Daniel also helped Craig raise funds for Teenage Cancer Trust. As well as writing, Craig is also an editor with a leading literary consultancy, helping both published and unpublished writers hone their work.
