In the tradition of
Watership Down, Windrusher does for cats what
Richard Adams' celebrated novel did for rabbits.
Journey along on Windrusher's epic quest to find
his family, as he picks up fellow travelers to
accompany him, makes an enemy of a psychotic
cat, and encounters a string of challenges that
push him to the limits of his endurance.
Victor DiGenti's award-winning adventure/fantasy
novel has been called, "Touching, mystical,
completely engrossing." Windrusher has been
honored with both a Royal Palm Award (Florida
Writer's Association) for Best Young Adult Novel
of 2004, and a Muse Medallion (Cat Writer's
Association) for Best Fiction of 2004.
Betty White, actress and
animal lover, praised the book, saying, "I
literally couldn't put it down-it is so
beautifully written."
Once you've read this
rich tale of adventure and homecoming, you'll
want to pick up the thrilling sequel, Windrusher
and the Cave of Tho-hoth, also by Ocean
Publishing.
