Sequel to Varjak Paw. ( )

The sequel to 'Varjak Paw' tells the further adventures of the alley cat who speaks to his Mesopotamian ancestor in his dreams - and has learned the mystical ninja-cat fighting skills of legend from him.
Now, Varjak and his friends are up against a cruel gang of bullies. It's the dead of winter, food is scarce, and Sally Bones' gang is taking over the city. And, unfortunately, Sally Bones' fighting skills may be even greater than Varjak's.
It's a cute story with a message of loyalty and standing up for oneself.
As with the first book, Dave McKean's artwork really makes this story for younger readers stand out. ( )

Even better than the first SF Said is is a genius! ( )

Enjoyed it a little less than its predecessor - however, the new characters were strong and I was glad that the Sally Bones plotline (which was kind of left up in the air in the first book) was picked up again. Worth the read. ( )

Brillient book, one of my favoyrites without a doubt! The adventure and characters were great and very original. A little comical in some parts, with claver suspanse, action and very unpredictible!
A bit violant in some scenes, but it certainly didn't take away from the enjoyment, it added to it!
Plus, great ending!! Highly recommended! ( )
