5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 12 Feb 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: The Sight (Mass Market Paperback)
After reading other peoples reviews I believe this book has been sold short by many. I myself am 15 years old and read the book at 13, reading peoples reviews I am quite shocked to find this book called 'boring in places', 'unflowing', and 'too long winded'. Perhaps it is only children who can read this book and appreciate it for its true worth. This novel is extremely imaginative, emotional and easy to get caught up in. I found myself feeling for the characters and wanting to read on, sometimes staying up late into the night so I could find out what happened in the next few chapters. As for the wolf language it is easy to understand what the words mean as you read the book and though some are unexplained it is not difficult to discover their meaning. I advise anyone who truly loves wolves to read this descriptive and heart-warming novel.

5.0 out of 5 stars Brilliant, 22 Oct 2004
This review is from: The Sight (Hardcover)
I read this book a couple of years ago and it was one of the best books I have read. I am quite critical of books and I sometimes find it hard to get into the story but this book is fantastic. You get into the book very quickly and even though the story is hard to follow in places it grips the reader. You think that you have just about sussed out what is going to happen but then something unexpected happens and you are left thinking again. The storyline is highly imaginative and descriptive and results in a fantastic read. It is extremely hard to put this book down. I can't put into words how good this book is so you had better go out and try it to see for yourself. A must read for anyone who, like me, absolutely adores wolves or any kind of animal for that matter. So stop reading this review and get started on reading the book!
P.S The "fire bringer" is good too but I, personally, prefer "the sight".

5.0 out of 5 stars A Must Read for Animal & Fantasy Lovers!, 28 Mar 2004
This review is from: The Sight (Hardcover)
I first read this book after borrowing it from my library and I instantly fell in love with it! Although it can be taken as being a sequel to his other book 'Fire Bringer' it doesn't have to be as there is only one small time when it is mentioned. I read 'The Sight' first, and although the two stories have a similar basis, the actual stories are pretty different. A brilliant story I fail to put this book down any time I read it. I would recommend it for Teenagers up as it is a longish book and can have some complicated areas. The other important factor about David Clement-Davies books is that although the books are fantasy based, the actual animals keep realitvely real. In other words, although a wolf may never actually pocess the sight, he keeps the pack relationships real! Many writers often fail on this aspect, and it is one of the many things that have made this book so popular.

It can have parts where it's difficult to keep tract of whats going on, but this normally only happens if you skim read it. You need to truely read this book to experience it. So why not pick up the pook and follow Larka and her friends and family along a journey that will not only change the young female wolf life and the lives of those around her, but also an entire population of animals.. Discover the making of a legend through the eyes of a wolf.. Truely a book to curl up with!
