When talking pigeons burst into his room, Kester discovers he can communicate with the last surviving creatures - and may be their only hope. In The Dark Wild, Kester learns that deep underground, beneath the city of Premium, more animals survive - and some believe the time has come to rise up against humanity. The Wild Beyond raises the stakes further: having saved the last wild animals and his city, Kester must face a mysterious steel dome, news carried by the world's only blue whale, and a brave mouse who may hold the key to the future. Finally, The Wild Before takes readers back to the origins of the legend, following a Mooncalf born on a stormy night and the small hare determined to protect it from a foretold catastrophe. Together, the four books form a rich saga about resilience, courage and protecting the natural world, told through vivid characters and Torday's blend of adventure, humour and heart..
