Brian's Hunt

by Gary Paulsen

Brian's Hunt Cover

Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Millions of readers of Hatchet, The River, Brian's Winter, and Brian's Return know that Brian Robeson is at home in the Canadian wilderness. He has stood up to the challenge of surviving alone in the woods. He prefers being on his own in the natural world to civilization.

When Brian finds a dog one night, a dog that is wounded and whimpering, he senses danger. The dog is badly hurt, and as Brian cares for it, he worries about his Cree friends who live north of his camp. His instincts tell him to head north, quickly. With his new companion at his side, and with a terrible, growing sense of unease, he sets out to learn what happened. He sets out on the hunt.

Review:

"Based on real incidents, this well-written sequel to Hatchet and its successors will be gobbled up by the author's legions of fans." Kirkus Reviews

Review:

"[A] must-read for the hordes of existing Hatchet fans out there, and it may also serve to draw some new readers into the fold." School Library Journal

Review:

"Less a novel than a very long short story, Paulsen's latest will satisfy his many fans." Booklist
