mairaelize's review against another edition

This was entertaining enough, but not really a "wilderness thriller," which is what I was hoping for. I wanted a bit more excitement. Bo was the best part of this book, so maybe his ending also affected my reaction.

I did not care for this read. Lots of flashbacks, and a relationship between father and daughter that at once was made to seem estranged and also very strong/emotionally powerful (though I did not find it so). I think the idea of the plot was neat, and it would make a good movie, perhaps, but it didn't quite work for me as a book, and I was glad to have reached the end.

Very good survival story. Think "Hatchet" for adults!
