Helga has more danger in her life than most beasts her age—Wrackshee slavers after her, a vicious attack by bandits that nearly kills her, a race against dragons pursuing her, and leading a daring rebellion to save her life and rescue friends and family from the insidious WooZan.

And that is just the beginning.

But what do you expect when you are a young beast who just can’t see the stupid rules of the world making any sense? Helga can’t accept things as they are and ends up taking on not just one, but two all-powerful, supreme tyrants in two different realms. Helga never intended to lead a revolution. It just sort of happened because she wouldn’t go along with the “rules of normal” that keep tyrants in power and entire societies enslaved. Beginning on a dangerous quest to solve some mysteries in her own past, Helga leads her quirky comrades on a journey that will not only forever change them, but upset ancient civilizations.

5,0 su 5 stelle Wonderful family read
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 4 dicembre 2012
Acquisto verificato
Helga: Out of Hedgelands is a perfect family book for evening read aloud -- or individual reading for ages 10 to 100.
It is an amazing story. Not only does it provide adventure, mystery, charming - and not so charming - characters, delightful descriptions and a truly warm story - but it also provides the reader with many areas that are perfect for discussions about discrimination, class systems, peer pressure, and other life issues using the animals as examples.
The author has provided a master piece with his story telling and has also given the readers many things to think about on topics that can be easily understood and discussed by all ages. I highly recommend reading Helga: Out of the Hedgelands and hope the author soon comes out with his next book.

I got this book out of curiosity and enjoyed it. It has a strange set of characters and some strange places and things in it and I just enjoyed reading it. If you like the different try this it's worth it.

4,0 su 5 stelle Great adventure story with characters I can respect
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 13 maggio 2013

I just started reading OOH and am enjoying it. It's imaginative and goes way beyond the "swords and horses" fantasy I have read. Also, I feel the characters have a level of inner nobility that is lacking in some stories. Not everyone has to be good, but I can't really get into a story about a bunch of liars and jerks. So this is cool!

OOH is appropriate for reading out loud to younger children or for pre-teens, teens or adults to enjoy.

3,0 su 5 stelle Couldn't suspend my disbelief
Recensito negli Stati Uniti il 20 agosto 2013

A reviewer said that this was the new Tolkien, or words to that effect. Sorry, but I don't agree.

I read 23% of the 500 plus pages, according to my Kindle app. But I couldn't bring myself to read any more. I discovered that I wasn't looking forward to going on. Since I didn't read it all, I'm giving this three stars, not less. It may have become more entrancing as the events kept occurring. I hope so.

The author (and editor, if there was one) did a good job of patrolling for usage errors. They are few and far between.

OK. That's the good. What didn't I like about the book? See the subtitle, or series title - "The Wood Cow Chronicles." The what? My main problem was that all the characters are mammals or birds (possibly some reptiles, but I don't recall any). They are mammals or birds who speak English, and wear clothing and use tools. Different species specialize in different ways, and some species seem to serve evil ends, and some, like the Wood Cows, don't. And how do the Wood Cows specialize? Not in producing dairy products. Not in grazing. In woodworking, no less! I just can't see a cow doing woodworking. Johnson didn't describe the "hands" of the Wood Cows, or of any other of the creatures, so maybe they were actually anatomically equipped to do woodworking, but there's no description of how they might have done this. I had similar problems in imagining other species, and how they looked and did their jobs. I know -- C. S. Lewis had intelligent animals in his Narnia books, and some species were generally good, and some generally bad, and some of them specialized, but, in his writing, the anatomical changes necessary to become part of a mixed society were described, at least a little. The Talking Mice, for example, were about two feet tall. And there were humans to interact with. And the non-humans didn't usually wear clothing. And the Narnia stories were relatively short, and got to the point quickly.

Some other problems. There is dialogue, and some of it is in various supposed dialects. These are sometimes difficult to comprehend. There is no map, and one would have been helpful, as there is quite a bit of traveling involved. There wasn't really any magic. The most valuable commodity in the Hedgelands was not gold, weapons, jewelry, money, fuel, food, or arcane knowledge. It was racing tortoises. I didn't come to a description of a race between tortoises, and there may have been one or more, but it was hard to imagine why anyone would trade in such animals, or steal tortoises belonging to others. I'm not clear as to whether they were also part of the mixed species society, or just ordinary tortoises. Finally, although I haven't read it all, the narrative seems to be almost entirely a flashback, with the present introduced in a little bit of the beginning.

I wish Johnson, and his readers, all the best, but I won't be finishing this book. I couldn't suspend my disbelief any longer.

This is the first Amazon book review I have ever written. I grew up in a reading family, and have never stopped (reading). From the 1st paragraph of "Helga: Out of the Hedgelands (Wood Cow Chronicles)", I was thinking "WOW" something different, and well written. This story grabs you immediately and the plot turns keep coming. I believe this is written for young adults, however it is not a simple read, you have to pay attention (like with most good books). I found it easy to be "pulled in" to the story and thoroughly enjoyed it. Although the story very different, I couldn't help being reminded of "Watership Down" as the reader is immediately immersed in the animal world. I don't know if digital books are "page turners" as there are no pages, however this is definitely a "screen flipper". I highly recommend this book. Full disclosure: I am related to the author.
