Cheyenne Richards: Author, The Prisoners Apprentice.

5.0 out of 5 stars Highly Recommend this Gripping Tale of Nature, Power — and Wombats! 

Reviewed  April 1, 2023

Briabehk is the riveting and hauntingly beautiful story of a  lone wombat and her unique, unputdownable adventures, yet echoes the  universal truths of power in all its forms — nature, politics, religion,  education, medicine, community, and that of the individual. To read  this book was to feel nature at its very essence. Even the rocks and  streams of the Snowy Mountains seemed to come to life, as I experienced  them with paws and a snout. :)

I was in the middle of moving as I  read this book, and kept finding myself taking far too many breaks from  packing for just a few more pages, and then reading late into the night  when I should have been resting. But I wouldn't have had it any other  way. Steel's novel was not only a joy to read, beginning to end, but it  is one that will stick with me for a lifetime.

We were really impressed with the depth and scope of this epic novel. Briabehk is a fascinating and sympathetic heroine and narrating the story from her point of view is an interesting twist on traditional storytelling.

I was hooked from page one and never let go.  It's so  delicious, I was tempted to race through, but I enjoyed it so much that I  wanted to savor it and make it last.  There is adventure, unexpected  plot twists, and well developed characters.  The author is a master  storyteller!

I am an avid reader of fiction. I have never read anything  like this. The characters are wonderful and it exposed me to a world I  have never experienced!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully rewarding 

Reviewed in the United States on February 8, 2023

A master storyteller gives us a sublimely told tale full of  rich color and characters set in a vividly portrayed landscape. This is a  story that fills the senses with wonder, excitement, grief, and  finally, the ultimate triumph over deep adversity and oppression through  strength of character, courage, compassion, and mastery of  long-forgotten knowledge. An amazingly well written first offering from  this talented author. One hopes for more.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Storytelling 

Reviewed in the United States on February 16, 2023

Wonderful Storytelling (could not put the book down) full of  wisdom, love of Nature and the wonder of animals. Beautifully elaborate  detailed descriptions create a fascinating world with interesting  characters. I  hope that there is a sequel (did not want the book to  end).

I have always been an avid reader, with words having the  ability to transport my mind to the times, places , characters and  emotions they describe - this tale of a humble wombat does just that ,  and does it well. Who knew the workings of a wombat society would be so  intrigueing , and a page-turner? I really enjoyed it.

Wonderful storytelling with universal themes as described by  the many reviewers here, and I cannot wait for the sequel! Briabehk will  be on the shelf for my grandchildren.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wombats!! 

Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2023

I'm a bit of a slow reader, and I relished all of this book!

I  don't know if I would have picked up a book about wombats if I didn't  know the author as my esteemed sailing teacher, but that would have been  a shame. It is brilliant! Not just the story, but the character  development, and the world created within the pages kept me pleasantly  awake some late nights.

I had intended to pass along the book to a  friend after finishing, but now I believe I'll just gift them their own  copy and hang on to this one myself. :)
