Review
In The Tygrine Cat, Inbali Iserles did for felines what Watership Down did for rabbits. Now the saga of warring cat nations returns in The Tygrine Cat On the Run. JC --The Jewish Chronicle
One of The Independent's 50 books every child should read...The Tygrine Cat (and The Tygrine Cat on the Run) by Inbali Iserles... If your parents keep going on at you to read Tarka the Otter, The Sheep-Pig and other animal fantasies, do they're great books also try Iserles' stories about a cat seeking his destiny. --Katy Guest, The Independent on Sunday
The vivid, vibrant descriptions of the challenges faced by these feline adventurers resonate throughout the book. For a story predominantly aimed at children, it is also incredibly appealing for any adult seeking escapism. The book's atmosphere is tense, the pace is quick, and the storyline, at times, dark. It is a testament to imagination and a call to arms for anyone standing alone. --Cambridge First

I got to sleep late last night because I just had to finish this book! I really, really enjoyed it. The story is really gripping (and moving), and Mati and all of his friends seem really real. I wish I could play with some of them! The book is very well-written, and continues the story of The Tygrine Cat brilliantly. Terrific.

I've finished reading 'On the run' and I absolutely loved it, really really really good. Well done to Inbali Iserles. I loved the rhythm and tension as the story unfolded through fantastically descriptive writing.

I have just finished reading the Tygrine Cat on the Run - couldn't put it down!
It is a highly enjoyable, fast paced, magical story about a very special cat with an important mission.
The characters are endearing, sometimes humorous, and sometimes scary - but all full of pathos, and extremely well observed by Inbali Iserles. She is clearly extremely fond of cats - but all human foibles shine through: this story is not just for cat-lovers!
For me, as a parent, I was most impressed by the descriptive, evocative, imaginative use of language. Children from 9 can read this book, but older children and young adults will feel thrilled and stimulated by the poetic prose and descriptive passages.
Iserles conjures magical worlds - and blends real life and fantasy with ease.
I loved this book - it was a delight from start to finish.
