My 13 yo read this and said he liked it as much as Hatchet which is high praise so I read it too to connect with him. It is a good survival story set in Alaska. Great for middle school teens or even older elementary. I didn’t love it as much as he did but I think it’s a great option for that age kiddo.

I read this when it first came out. I don't know how I missed putting it on Goodreads. An excellent Alaskan survival story along the line of Gary Paulsen and Ben Mikaelsen. The author knows his way around a kayak and Prince William Sound. The whole story rings true, and Tom's back story enhances the adventure. I highly recommend!

It's a bonus that Paul Greci is a friend and co-worker!
