Resumen del Editor
Kirkus Reviews Best Books of the Year
"McCaughrean takes the bones of a real event, wraps it in immersive, imaginative detail and thoroughly real emotion, and creates an unforgettable tale of human survival. A masterpiece." - Kirkus Reviews
Winner of the 2018 Carnegie Medal! New from Michael L. Printz Award-winner Geraldine McCaughrean comes an extraordinary story of eight boys stranded on a rock in the middle of the sea, left to fight for their survival.
Every time a lad went fowling on the stacs, he came home less of a boy and more of a man. If he went home at all, that is.
Every summer Quill and his friends are put ashore on a remote sea stac to hunt birds. But this summer, no one arrives to take them home. Surely nothing but the end of the world can explain why they’ve been abandoned - cold, starving, and clinging to life, in the grip of a murderous ocean. How will they survive such a forsaken place of stone and sea?
This is an extraordinary story of fortitude, endurance, tragedy and survival, set against an unforgettable backdrop of savage beauty.
A Macmillan Audio production from Flatiron Books
"McCaughrean, who won the Printz Award for The White Darkness (2007), slips into the cracks of the human soul, dissecting with compassion the many paths that a person might take when confronted with such a challenge." (Booklist, starred review)
Reseñas de la Crítica
"With his Scottish accent, narrator Angus King adds atmosphere to this beautifully written historical novel.... There's a lightness to King's tone that reflects the boys' youth and helps keep the story from feeling too grim, in spite of the circumstances. It's gripping listening." (AudioFile Magazine)

You define life or it defines you. In Shawn Speakman’s case, it was both. Lacking health insurance and diagnosed with Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011, Shawn quickly accrued a massive medical debt that he did not have the ability to pay. That’s when New York Times best-selling author Terry Brooks offered to donate a short story that Shawn could sell to help alleviate those bills—and suggested he ask the same of his other writer friends. Unfettered is the result: An anthology built in order to relieve that debt, featuring short stories by some of the best fantasy writers in the genre.

Long defamed as a vicious pirate, Captain James Cook (a.k.a Hook) was in fact a dazzling wordsmith who left behind a vibrant, wildly entertaining, and entirely truthful memoir. His chronicle offers a counter narrative to the works of J.M. Barrie, a "dour Scotsman" whose spurious accounts got it all wrong. Now, award-winning playwright John Pielmeier is proud to present this crucial historic artifact in its entirety for the first time.

Beautiful
The book itself is a beautiful and sad story, with amazing writing. Not as gruesome as I expected, but incredibly dark at times, with twists that left me yelling at my iPhone during the work day. The Scottish narrator does a fantastic job giving life to all of the characters, and made me happy I listened to it rather than read it, because I learned a heck of a lot about how to pronounce things in Gaelic. If you like survival stories or historical fiction, this is a must!!

Great and engaging story
I have always loved survival stories and this is a good one. I listened to this on the way to work and home again and there were many times I sat in the car to hear what was going to happen next.
I liked the boys were the center of the story and of course Quill is a great character. I’m sorry that the story was tied up so neatly and there doesn’t need to be a sequel.
Major shout out to the narrator who was wonderful. There were a couple of places I couldn’t quite make out what he said but that was a small price for the great narration. His voice really put me in the story!
