Set in 7000BCE around the middle of the Mesolithic period of hunter gatherers and based on careful research, Stone Arrows is an original novel combining an exciting adventure with historical detail. It paints a wonderful picture of how life was lived in these far-off times – the terrain, the wild animals, the clothing, the sights and smells – while telling an engaging and fast-moving story.
Here's what readers have to say about this book....
As an adult I found the story absorbing. It is a well-written, interesting and well-researched and the author's power of description added an extra dimension to the story. The book is an easy read, the characters came alive for me and in fact I found it hard to put it down. Being so descriptive and visual, I think it would make a good transition from page to animation or short film.
A very exciting book and educational at the same time. A book to be enjoyed by children and adults in my view. A must read.
