The Deadlands: Hunted

'If you love dinosaurs and adventure, this is the perfect book for you!' The Phoenix Comic

'A gruesome, absorbing adventure about trust, courage and manipulation.' BookTrust

'An entertaining and gripping story that will rekindle the reader’s interest in the age of dinosaurs.' The School Librarian

'Skillfully written, packed with adventure and surprising in its depth, this is a book which deserves a place in the primary (or even secondary) school library. It could stimulate discussion around honour, peace-making and the integrity of leaders in the classroom; but I suspect that it will mostly be enjoyed for the simple pleasure of a good read.' Reading Zone

'Action packed adventure story.' the Bookseller

'An exciting and promising start to a new series […] This is a great, action-packed book that is sure to be well-received by young readers who enjoy stories of animal adventures and alternate worlds, such as the Wings of Fire series. Melki-Wegner’s world-building is impressive [...] . The plot is satisfyingly suspenseful and engaging, solidly preparing the ground for the next instalment in the series. I will definitely be recommending The Deadlands: Hunted to students, and am looking forward to its sequel The Deadlands: Trapped.' NetGalley Reviewer

'A brilliant dinosaur book. […] I love how despite Eleri being so small, he can use his wit to outsmart huge powerful foes. I also love how you are constantly hoping for him to be alright while being on the edge of your seat. I like how, at the end of the book, there are fact cards on each of the characters.' Toppsta reviewer, age 10

'A book about dinosaurs but not necessarily just for people who like dinosaurs. There's a lot packed into this adventure book.' Toppsta

'It was very action packed and adventurous, this is a great book!' Toppsta Reviewer, age 9

'I thought this book was great! I loved the story and would definitely recommend if you love dinosaurs.'

'For anyone who loves dinosaurs then this the book for them, an absolute journey of intrigue and fascination, full of unexpected twits and turns, a real adventure, well worth a read with a map at the front of the book to get you started.' Toppsta Reviewer, age 12
