good read

if you like strange things with a twist of love this might be a book for you.

Very original

I picked this book up because of its great cover (I have a different edition) and the story on the back sounded good. And it is. "Hunted" lives off it's highly original storyline. N.M. Browne creates a dark and mysterious setting for the unusual sight of Karen, a girls soul trapped in a fox as she lies in a coma, dying. Some passages following the parallel hospital-story are deeply sad, especially when her ex boyfriends visits her a last time or her grandma watches her faraway sleep. And many scenes in the actual adventure are filled with excitement but also despair, for Karens strength is growing weaker - in reality and her adventure. This book is very emotional and to be recommended for readers about 14 years old.

Not as good as Basilisk but still an exceptional book.

When a young firl (Karen) gets beaten up into a coma, she enters a world she never knew could exist. There, Karen becomes an arl; a creature visiting from another place with the appearence of an animal but the intelligence of a human. Hunted is original like nothing I've ever read before. The ending has quite a twist.

Hunted by N. M. Browne

The book Hunted is about a young girl (Karen) that sets out on the adventure of a lifetime while her body lies in a hospital bed. I found that Hunted tugged at all the emotions that could be felt. As I flew through the book I could feel just as she felt, so much that I would forget that I was reading it and just feel that I was in it. I felt it so much that I was there with her feeling the pain, agony, and utter instinct to survive. It was so good that I didn't want to put it down, but mysterious enough to always keep you wondering what the next page would bring. I feel that this is a good book for people who consider themselves one with nature.
