Rocco is the first book that I can remember making me cry It s always a bit of a gamble to revisit books that had such a strong hold over you at some stage in life, because if it doesn t still it s bound to be a let down.While it couldn t completely live up to my expectations, it fortunately came very, very close, so I only had to down scale my rating from 5 to 4 stars It s an interesting story, and powerfully written I could have wished for it to be a bit longer and slightly complex, as it is [...]
Not as good as I remember it from school, but then saying that the last time I read it I was 15 and my mentality has changed considerably Worth a read if you are aged between 12 and 18 However I would think this would make a great motion picture, especially if filmed in New Zealand where the author is from.
Jordan ahead of her time This book still current More here strikingkeys 2018
I reread this just now, and was happy to do so it s a very well written timeslip novel, ultimately about the reconciliation between members of a single family across vast distances of time and space The main character, Rocco, finds himself in a primitive, harsh village Strangers are usually stoned to death as a threat, but, thanks to the wise woman Ayoshe, the boy is allowed to live and join the village He eventually comes to love the people deeply, and is changed by what he learns from living a [...]
I remember picking this up from a stash of my cousin s books ages ago While the story has been lost to memory I still remember my satisfaction when I finished the book
I first read this book as a kid, not long after it was first published It absolutely blew my mind I was a bit scared about re reading it, in case it didn t live up to my memory, but I m pleased to say it did.Rocco is a great character, enough of a dick to be interesting but not enough to annoy me I love the life he built in the Valley of Anshur and the way everything is wrapped up in the end.The writing flows nicely, with enough detail about life in Anshur to picture it without getting bogged do [...]

I read and loved this years ago as a teenager, so it s hard to know if it would still be any good on revisiting But there s been a fair bit of discussion on Facebook lately about the YA books we read as teenagers, which made me think of this although my thoughts had returned to it from time to time between when I first read it and now, as I type this It s so funny the way just seeing the cover totally brought me back.It is seductive in the way a lot of sci fi fantasy set in strange, primitive so [...]
Maybe a 2.5 My problem with this book, although it wasn t clunky or anything, was that there was no tension Nothing really happened.I mean, yes, Rocco magically transported to a primitive time which they eventually explained to be view spoiler the future after a nuclear war although really, only like 90 years after nuclear war some people would build medieval level towns and some people would live like cavemen with no salvaging of modern technology AT ALL hide spoiler but never explained HOW he [...]
An all time favourite read to many of my family, never have I tired of reading and re reading this story.Our story starts with Rocco in a dream that has become all to familiar to him, a wolf attack The place is unknown to him but this very place will transport him into a world that he will grow to love and long for But does this place really exist, is it the past or a future What will change this dream either to become a reality or stay a dream I highly recommend this book for any age group.
This was the first book I read of S Jordan s it remained my favourite for a good many years after I must ve been around 10 or so, but put me on the track to books by her as well as a great love of fantasy historical fiction I ve based this on my memory of it, but I will reread one day too
aka Rocco This book is one that s stayed with me over the years since I first read it as a young teenager It moved me, and make me think about the bigger picture of things I would recommend it to everyone and anyone In fact I might just have to pick myself up a new copy as my original was sold when I moved overseas as an adult.
I first read this book as a teenager and it has stayed with me ever since.It s not an action packed adventure and there s no great quest, but I think its simplicity is what draws you in Definitely a great book for YA.
One of my favourite books from when I was at school
I loved this book when I was younger I read it than once The ending is what I will always remember.Merged review I loved this book when I was younger I will always remember the ending.
I read Rocco when i was a child, so would love to read it again.
How do u read a book on here
Excellent story with a twist in the tail
One of my favorites from my youth, I used to read it over and over never getting bored with it I would love to get hold of it again
I love this book and have it in paperback but does anyone know how to get an ebook copy
Read it in highschool Have loved with a passion since then
Just barely decent fantasy for young adults Strange religious ideas maybe some is better than none , and focus on boy girl attraction seemed out of place when survival is main objective.
The book got better as it progressed I thought the ending was quite good.
