BOOK BLURB:
'You are walking into the jaws of death.' Hal and Roger Hunt are on an awesome African adventure to track down the rare great white elephant. The brothers coolly tackle their task - despite doom-laden prophecies from mumbo, a Watussi chieftain - and as the temperature rises...the danger-level intensifies.
REVIEW:
As we return to Africa for this offering, the reader will be glued as the two lead characters seek to fulfil their fathers list for animals. There’s a whole lot of things happening within the pages and of course you really can’t help but get wrapped up in the adventure as they use ingenuity alongside bravery to achieve thier goals. As with Willard’s other books, it wonderfully written with the country being the leading star which has taken many readers over the years on their own safari’s within the imagination. Back that up with an obvious love for travel and seeing the unusual and all in it’s a satisfying read. Magic.
BOOK BLURB:
'Never trust sharks...' Hal and Roger Hunt dive into danger when they join the Oceanographic institute as part of an underwater operation in the South Seas. And it's sink or swim for the intrepid brothers when their aquatic adventures bring them face to face with a foe even more deadly than the sea creatures of the deep...
REVIEW:
Willard Price has enthused children for years and having started rereading the series again after my first read 25 years ago, I’ve fallen again for Hal and Rogers adventures. Whilst they’re not being released in chronological order the series is one that will capture the imagination as the two Hunt boys carry out their captures for their fathers business. Its full of adventure, danger and of course trouble as Roger really has never lost his mischievous attitude from the start. Add to this cracking pace and a real feeling of involvement and all in it’s a wonderful read. Great stuff.
