A children's book for grown-ups by Jon Evans Praise for my previous work:"Evans can write." - The Washington Post "Thought-provoking ... Invisible Armies is an intriguing, pacy read, and Mr Evans shows great potential." - The Economist "You're hooked ... the characters are delightfully delineated ... beautifully controlled ... (a) pacy thriller for the 21st century." - The Times (London) on Dark Places / Trail of the Dead "A fantastic read." - Booklist on The Blood Price I usually write international thrillers, but Beasts of New York is very different: it's an urban fantasy about the wildlife of New York City, starring a squirrel protagonist who has to find his way from exile back to his home in Central Park, rescue his mother, and win a war. No easy task - but the unconventional friends he makes along the way just might be able to help him save his homeland...
