This book is an emotional rolarcoaster, brilliantly written and a perfect end to the trilogy. A definate must read!I would strongly recommend reading the first two of the series first though as otherwise the story will not make as much sense.
The characters are all brilliantly developed and very easy to empathise with and the plot is full off lots of twists and turns with an unpradictable ending. Definately worth the money.

A lovely edition and an ideal picture flat format for the little ones to enjoy.
A few words on each page are highlighted in red and green ink the rest is in black. For example on the first page the highlighted words are Twas - Mouse - Saint Nicholas.

My dad bought this book for my 1 year old son. It's the best book he's got! The animals come alive in this book which he absolutely loves! I have bought a couple of these books for my friends' children and my son's little friends. The quality of this book is phenomenal. A definite winner as a present for any young child!

I thought this book was cleverly written, from the view of a 9 year old boy - it is only because we have historical hindsight of the events that are being described by the boy, who does not understand, that the full story plays out in your imagination as the story unfolds.
I did not expect the story to end the way it did. I was gripped.

I just finished this in a day after having last read it years ago when it first came out. It isn't as good as the first or last book in my opinion but it's important for the trilogy.
As a book in its own right, I'm impressed with how well Malorie Blackman manages to convey the feelings of Sephy and Jude. I really feel like I can empathise with the characters and it's extremely moving.
I read this straight after re-reading the first in the trilogy, "Noughts & Crosses", and I found that that helped the understanding and enjoyment of "Knife Edge". I'm not sure why but I just remember not enjoying it as much the first time I read it. It might be because there's not much of a main plot in "Knife Edge".
This book is quite light-hearted, and as another review says, probably contains everything you need to pass- get a C grade. It doesn't, however, contain the information i would personally say you need for the A*-B Therefore is better for foundation. I have now bought the York Notes revision book, which is much better for higher grades!!!

This is a good book, good story, well written BUT. Why was Charlie Higson chosen to take on Ian Flemmings work? Why is it set in the 1930's. Danile Craigs parents where not born then? The modern James bond would have grwon up in the 1970's. Am I wrong. I think this is where Anthony Horowitz has come in. He has already wrote the Alex Rider series set in current time. Now he is writing the Jason Steed series set in the 1970's. So he would be a modern day bond that we now see on film. However Flemming people never chose Horowitz one of Britians greatest authors.
Back to Silverfin. No its not Harry Potter as some say here. harry Potter is better, this is good, a little predictable.
