Simply brilliant story
and writing style.
I loved reading this
book and found it hard to put down, not just because of the clever story line
but because it is incredibly well written. I have read, and thoroughly enjoyed,
some of Will Lowrey’s books before but his writing of The Animals v Samuel
Willis has surpassed his others. (Having said that Chasing the Blue Sky
is still my favourite)
The story is set at a
time when all animals have been liberated and are equal to humans. Samuel
Willis is brought before the court for the cruelty and murder of an ill-treated
dairy cow. If found guilty the penalty could be death by hanging.
His descriptions of the animals’ characters, movements, and
dialogue are amusing and show Lowrey’s keen observation of animals.
In fact, the whole book
is so well depicted you are right there in the courtroom and on the farm with
the characters.
The ending is a perfect
result and inspiring.
If you are an animal
lover, you will love this story.
My
rating 5*
