A strong desert setting and a corkscrew of a plot make this a terrific page-turner.
Julia Eccleshare, LoveReading4Kids
Pure good-hearted fun for fans of Anthony Horowitz.
The Times
A faintly old-fashioned tale of kidnap, complete with Robin Hood figure, double-dealing policemen and British spies running amok. Highly entertaining.
Independent on Sunday
The outlaw at the heart of the plot brings a heartening complexity and morality to this seldom-seen setting. Nonstop action in the African desert.
Kirkus
The outlaw at the heart of the plot, Yakuuba Sor, brings a heartening complexity and morality to this seldom-seen setting. Nonstop action in the African desert.
Kirkus Reviews USA
This is one of those books that 11+ boys who love action and adventure will love . . . Stephen Davies certainly deserves to become more widely known than he currently is.
The Book Zone (for Boys)
I have a dreadful urge to run around town waving a copy of Outlaw at every potential reader I can think of.
Bookwitch
This is, quite simply, a cracking action thriller. I can't recommend this highly enough.
Armadillo Magazine
A slickly paced sequence of dramatic incidents characterised by numerous twists, turns and unexpected revelations.
Books for Keeps
A non-stop adventure
Addicted to Media
Outlaw moves at a strikingly quick pace yet is not without humor. This thriller is a great way to get readers hooked while introducing them to the issues affecting contemporary Africa.
School Library Journal, Starred Review
Davies smoothly mixes adventure and political commentary. Readers should enjoy both the characters and the abundant action.
Publishers Weekly
Voted one of the best books of 2011
