4.0 out of 5 stars Another Good Kilworth Book, 14 May 2004
This review is from: House of Tribes (Hardcover)
A house populated by several antagonistic tribes of mice is the unlikely setting for this book by Garry Kilworth, told from the perspective of the rodents! Kilworth does a great job of getting the reader to identify with the animals rather than the people in the story, even though they are a species we're accustomed to disliking. Indeed, by the time I was a quarter of the way through the book I was thoroughly on the side of the mice!

The book tells the story of Pedlar, a mouse from the countryside who is compelled to leave his home and enter a nearby house. His arrival triggers a chain of events which completely alter the whole nature of the home which the mice have made for themselves.

This is the third of Kilworth's animal fantasies that I have read. All of them are good, but of those I have read I think I just preferred Frost Dancers to this book (but if I had read them the other way round I might be saying the opposite).
