A propos du livre

Quatrième de couverture :

VARJAK PAW IS BACK.

There are Seven Skills that give a cat great power, and Varjak Paw knows them all. He can fight, he can hunt, he can walk unseen. There's just one problem.

Sally Bones, the thin white cat who leads the city's deadliest gang, also knows the Skills. She knows even more than Varjak does. And now she's coming to get him . . .

Revue de presse :

"Varjak Paw, the feline martial arts marvel, returns in this action-packed, fast-paced sequel. Now a master of the Seven Skills of the Way of Jalal, which endowed Varjak with great powers, including the ability to walk unseen, he now lives as a free-roaming alley cat with feline companions Holly and Tam and a dog named Cludge. Freedom becomes a thing of the past for the cats in the city when one-eyed Sally Bones, more skilled in the Way than Varjak, uses her gang of thugs to bully others and demand mice, fish, and other payments. It is up to Varjak to battle the villains heroically and save the city."—Booklist

"As well as being a well-written sequel, this is a successful stand-alone novel."—The Bulletin

"Impossible to put down."—School Library Journal
