About this product

Product Information

Harry August is on his deathbed. Again. No matter what he does or the decisions he makes, when death comes, Harry always returns to where he began, a child with all the knowledge of a life he has already lived a dozen times before. Nothing ever changes. Until now. As Harry nears the end of his eleventh life, a little girl appears at his bedside. 'I nearly missed you, Doctor August,' she says. 'I need to send a message.' This is the story of what Harry does next, and what he did before, and how he tries to save a past he cannot change and a future he cannot allow. Also by Claire North Novels: TOUCH THE SUDDEN APPEARANCE OF HOPE

    Fabulous book from an amazing author.

    Claire North is a talented author, I now have all her books and they're excellent. This is one of my all time favourites, definitely highly recommended.

    Confusing

    Just over half way through and I don't really understand what is going on. To me it just seems like a collection of stories, with a vague connection, rambling along with no obvious plot. I rarely give up on a book, especially as this is one that I am reading in a Book Club, but really I've come to a point where enough is enough, and it's one for the charity bag. Can't recommend on any level.

  • The first fifteen lives of Harry August

    Probably the best book that crossed my path in many, many years. Harry quickly became a character whom I cared about and enjoyed and after the 3rd reading became a firm hero. Do yourself a favour get this book and settle down to meet a new friend that you will go back to time and again
