Ember Falls (The Green Ember)

I LOVED THIS BOOK!!! The only reason I haven’t given it maximum stars is because it just keeps getting more and more depressing and there isn’t much hope left but I’m hoping that the next book will make up for it, but I’d definitely recommend it to age seven to eleven providing they’ve got good memories to remember about all the different characters!

Love this book it definitely deserves more than 5 stars one of the best book i have ever read!!! Hope the review is useful!!!!😃😃😃😃

Fab. Cant wait for next one.

By 7 and 9 year old love this book.They have asked me to get the next one.

Children aged 11 and 10 are really excited by this series :-)

Excellent book for avid reader aged 9.

This review has been written by my 10-year-old daughter.This book is about two rabbits who are separated from their family and have to fight evil.One of the things I love the most about The Green Ember series, is that even though the story is about good vs evil, it isn't like most books where good wins every time. I find books where that happens, very boring and unrealistic.I can't pick a favourite character as they are all amazing. They are strong, caring, and loyal, and they inspire me to be more like them.I would definitely recommend this book series to anyone aged 6 and above.His books are very well-written and I couldn't put them down because each chapter keeps you hooked.Me and my little sister have read these books and listened to them on Audible lots of times and we both absolutely love them. S.D.Smith is one of our favourite authors and we can't wait for his next book to come out.I've read hundreds of books and personally, I'm convinced that these stories are some of the absolute BEST in history and will become just as well loved as The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe.Thanks S.D.Smith for writing these FABULOUS books and inspiring me to become a writer.By Vishaka

The rabbits are back.If you’d told me I would be enjoying a children’s book series about rabbits, I might have laughed out loud. But I am enjoying one, and I’m not laughing – I’m smiling.“Ember Falls” is the second installment of “The Green Ember” series by S.D. Smith and illustrated by Zach Franzen (there’s also a prequel – “The Black Star of Kingston”. And what rabbits can do is rather amazing.Following the great victory over the wolves at Jupiter’s Crossing (where we left our rabbit friends in The Green Ember), brother and sister Picket and Heather Longtreader have settled into a kind of normal daily living. Heather is learning the arts of medicine from Dr. Emma, who will turn out to be something more than a doctor. Picket is training with the elite military unit called the Fowlers, while mourning the taking of his parents and little brother by the wolves. He’s in training because the rabbits know war is coming.Trouble lurks at every corner – wolves attacking in unexpected forays into the rabbit compound of Halfwind, eagles screaming and pouncing, the arrival of a new and suspect rabbit army, and traitors lurking in their midst. Heather and Picket have much to learn, and much to be wary about.It’s a delightful story, and it can be read aloud to a children’s audience (or an adult one, for that matter). It’s action-packed, full of near misses and near hits, acts of courage in the face of overwhelming odds, and riveting scenes of anguish and confrontation. An additional story is being developed as well – the plight of a girl rabbit enslaved by the wolves and forced to serve them.Ember Falls is the second of at least three in the rabbit series. It’s a self-contained one but not a completed one.Yes, I’m glad the rabbits are back.
