Media Reviews
Zindel is a master at creating and sustaining a mood, and Raptor is no exception. * SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL *
Paul Zinde's graphic stories Raptor and Bats had boys of 10 and over queing to order copies. Although revolting gory, they are well written and extremely fast moving. * Publishing News, April 2001 *
Not for the fainthearted, Zindel has found a formula that will entice the teen reader. * Children's Books in Ireland, Spring 2001 *
