Description

Colt Lawless is on the run, suddenly famous, and more than a little superhuman. But can he save the last animals on earth? Caruso, the singing gibbon, has been sneaking out of his cage at night, and Colt thinks he knows why. Ever since he joined the Lost World Circus, he's been able to do all kinds of impossible things. He can understand animals, pick up an elephant and catch a helicopter. But is Colt strong enough to face what happens when he tries to set Caruso free once and for all? An electrifying new series from Justin D'Ath, author of the bestselling Extreme Adventures.
