A review by girlreading
The Highland Falcon Thief by M.G. Leonard, Sam Sedgman

4.0

The Highland Falcom Thief has all the components of a classic children's adventure story.
It's got trains, mystery, stowaways, friendships, a quirky cast of characters and kids outsmarting adults. It's cosy, action packed and such a lot of fun.
My only qualm with this book was the fatphobia aimed towards one character that I was incredibly disappointed by. It was (as all fatphobia is) utterly unnecessary, dated and frustrating.

That being said, over all I had a huge amount of fun with this book. It was a delight to read can't wait to continue with the series.
