Über diesen Titel

It is 1911 and London's docks thrum with underhand deals, none so great as the arrival of a valuable, rare and exotic animal, smuggled from the depths of the Congolese rainforest. The baby gorilla stands to make one man, the shady Goliath Deeds, very, very rich – he and his right-hand man, juvenile pickpocket Toff Squabble. Heaven help anyone who dares stand in their way, not least the brave and innocent 12-year-old Nettie Beecroft, who finds herself embroiled in a dangerous rescue attempt where she encounters toshers, bone-grubbers and gangsters.

Whom can Nettie trust? And can she save the life this very special creature?

Kritikerstimmen

'Nobody writes striking, heartfelt adventure like Phil Earle. The Dawn of Adonis is a showcase of everything he does best: humour and peril and towering stakes all wrapped up in stark, spare, powerful prose. I loved it!' (Ross Montgomery, author of Perijee and Me)
'I absolutely raced through The Dawn of Adonis! It’s a tremendous nail-biting read, tender and terrifying in equal measure. Both Toff and Nettie are fantastic characters, and little Adonis is the most endearing little creature ever.' (Jacqueline Wilson, award-winning author of The Story of Tracy Beaker and Hetty Feather)
'Pacy, poetic, heartfelt and with a fantastically Dickensian authorial voice, this book deserves every rave review & prize shortlisting that’s sure to follow … a standing ovation for Phil Earle.' (Emma Carroll, bestselling award-winning author of Letters to the Lighthouse)
'An utter triumph ... Phil is one of the best writers I know and he just gets better and better ... A stunning book that deserves to win all the awards.' (Lisa Thompson, author of The Goldfish Boy)
