A book about climate change that offers hope as well as despair, wrapped in an action-packed adventure. A powerful call to arms
The Last Whale filled me with such powerful emotions - it is a poignant tale of our times told with deep respect and knowledge... Chris's writing shines like a beacon of hope
A wonder of a book. Memorable characters exploring the mysteries of nature and what it is to be human, beautiful writing and a compelling exploration of the climate crisis. Hugely recommended
Charged by super plotting, the infectious passion of young eco-campaigners across three generations, and a powerful environmental call to action... A rousing, enchanting triumph
An ode to their immense beauty and power and also how one whale is worth thousands of trees in terms of carbon capture

Fascinating science underpins this tightly plotted and gripping adventure that reminds us how fragile the ecosystem is
