FULL COLOUR edition, featuring 53 delightful illustrations by the author. An exciting and witty adventure story for 7-11 year-olds, set in a parallel world populated by hedgehogs. The story opens as the Second World War is unfolding. Great Bristlin stands alone against Hegemony and needs every hedgehog it can get: Spike has joined His Majesty's Air Force and is flying reconnaissance missions; and Clou has formed an escape line to help Bristlish prisoners-of-war on the run. Snippette is determined to escape from her enemy-occupied island and do her bit for the war, too - even if it's just making widgets in a factory. However, the mysterious Field Liaison and Espionage Agency (known to its agents as F.L.E.A.) has something altogether more dangerous in mind, and Snippette will soon hold the fate of nations in her paws. 'Where Hedgehogs Dare' takes Snippette, Flight Lieutenant Spike and Clou, the Comte de Grif, on a dangerous journey behind enemy lines - a parachute drop, crash landing, secret messages, deception and self-sacrifice. Some will be captured. All risk their lives.

FULL COLOUR edition, featuring 84 delightful illustrations by the author. An exciting and witty adventure story for 7-11 year olds, set in a parallel world populated by hedgehogs. This is Snipper's first adventure. The story opens as he is about to set off on a skiing holiday with his friends; but a sinister plot is afoot and their holiday is disrupted when Snipper finds himself pitted against a criminal mastermind known only as Mr E. Snipper is soon on the tail of Mr E but, along the way, he must protect his friends, hide his identity and decide once and for all whether the hedgehog in blue is friend or foe. Perhaps she is nothing to do with Mr E. Perhaps she is just a stranger whose book he picked up for her. But a book may contain a code or a secret message... Snipper's journey takes him from the magnificent but dangerous snow-covered slopes of the Altispine mountains; through the Needlelands where Van Hogloot - a criminal banker with international connections - has his home in a charming converted windmill; to Icepeak, a remote and starkly beautiful island where Snipper finally comes face-to-face with the mysterious Mr E himself.

This is Snipper's second adventure. As the story opens, he is looking forward to watching the launch of the space shuttle. Riding inside will be two of his friends - astronauts who are to spend the next six months orbiting Earth on board the international space station. But Snipper never makes it to their launch. Whisked off to a distant galaxy himself, he soon has other things on his mind - a rescue mission, a plot which threatens the future of his entire planet and a seemingly impossible journey home. As he navigates his way across a hostile universe, he must learn to land a spacecraft, assume an alien identity and secretly visit strange new worlds - where days are longer than years and where plants can only survive underground. Though his friends have long since given him up for lost, their paths will cross again. Then they must all play their part. The future of the Earth rests in their paws.
