Outwalkers by Fiona Shaw

5.0

Such a fantastic read! The plot is gripping, the adventure is big. The stakes are high and the pace is tight. Along with all of that is a main character and his dog that you love from the start, a motley gang of kids on the run (small niggle, if only Cass had been better developed), and a govt conspiracy based on the direction so many govts are headed that it made this a slightly tougher read for me as an adult than it would likely be for its target audience.
There are a couple of grisly scenes but can easily be skimmed if the reader is squeamish.
Must have for any school library.
