The Last Wild

In a dystopian future, where nearly all animal life has been wiped out by the mysterious red-eye plague, lives an extraordinary boy called Kester. He has been forcibly separated from his father, a scientist working on a vaccine for the disease. Kester discovers he can talk with the remaining animals so that he may be the key to saving life on earth.  ‘The Last Wild‘ is a though-provoking adventure, full of great human and animal characters and packed with  ideas.
