Reseña del editor:

When a mysterious bird arrives in Godhanger Wood to protect the frightened animals from the cruel gamekeeper, this Christ-figure deliberately sacrifices himself to save them from death

Nota de la solapa:

ror in Godhanger Wood. With each passing day, another animal falls prey to the bloodthirsty gamekeeper, and another corpse is nailed to his gibbet. As the death toll rises, it seems that nothing can save the creatures of Godhanger. But there is one who brings new hope: the Skymaster, a mysterious and mighty bird who appears suddenly on a winter's day. His followers speak of his strange powers and listen faithfully to his wise words. Gentle yet formidable, the Skymaster is determined to stop the gamekeeper for good. But to do so, he may have to make the greatest sacrifice of all.

Dick King-Smith breaks dramatic new ground in this novel for older readers--an unflinching and allegorical look at life in the wild.
