I was impressed by the man and was super keen to read the book. It did not disappoint in any way. Full of action and adventure, the book is sort of like an updated version of Hatchet. There is an added bonus of a mystery dealing with the boy's missing father. Parts of the story, dealing with hunting are very realistic. I already have kids lining up to check this one out! I would highly recommend this for fans of outdoor adventure and survival books!!!!

By R Clark I lived in Alaska for over 30 years, so I was interested to see how Paul Greci would convey the raw beauty of nature there, and a boy’s struggle to survive. He does a great job describing both of these things. The same uncaring natural world that imperils Tom also provides the things he needs to survive, although they don't come easily. And, he must face inner challenges to survive, learning to rely on growing strength and wisdom to live another day on Bear Island. A fine read for boys, girls, and adults who have ever wandered off the beaten path, or wondered if they could.
2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Classic MG Debut By Matthew M Rush What I really enjoyed most about this book was its authenticity. I've never been to Alaska, but I have been solo camping, and I have lived in the wilderness and out of a backpack for six weeks, and I have started fires with the metal match method (flint and magnesium shavings) and the bowdrill method (this is so difficult I'm relatively certain they were just messing with us), so I know a little bit about what Tom went through, and I must say that the story felt completely genuine at all times to me.Tom endures extremely difficult conditions and circumstances, and though of course he suffers through his trauma with the occasionally poor judgment and lack of experience that most children his age would, he manages to find the determination in his will to live to survive. The story is sad, and at times stressful, but ultimately it left me feeling hopeful, and with a renewed sense of appreciation for the passion it takes to truly feel alive.Greci also pulls off quite a feat in this story in that in 95% of the book, Tom is all alone, with no one to talk to, and therefore no dialog to carry the pacing or vary the story structure, and yet he kept me interested from page to page, weaving a tale that was rife with tension and although it didn't move at breakneck pace, never seemed to slow down enough to give me a chance to breathe.This worked out well, making Surviving Bear Island a quick and enjoyable read, and one that will remain in my mind for some time, both for what it pulled off in the sense of dramatic structure, and for being an impressive MG debut from an author I will be putting on my to be watched list.I would recommend this one for readers 10 and up, and especially for boys who might be reluctant to make the jump to novel length works.
