Time to Stop Running is a fantasy for all ages: Light battles darkness in a magical showdown. Bullies run scared...hunters become the hunted!In this spine-tingling adventure, Tipsy the Hare takes on his deadliest foe. A terrifying challenge awaits him in the Land of the Humaniks. For Tipsy, a hare living on an offshore island, life is good, if not always wonderful: The winter months are tough...hares squabble among themselves as all creatures do ...over food, love, ruffled egos. And there's the falcon that hovers high above and occasionally swoops to snatch a leveret (baby hare) from the world of the living. Tipsy is no ordinary hare. From birth he has been gifted with psychic powers, including the ability to converse with other species and outrun all other hares.The seasons come and go, and the hares get on with their lives. But danger looms across the ocean, on the Big Island that is visible some days from the beach or cliff-top. From that fearful land boats arrive at dawn in the season of the fallen leaves. From the moment the Humaniks splash ashore nothing is the same again. The invaders are members of Ballycrossways Coursing Club, who aim to capture as many hares as they can for their live baiting fixture back on Broc Peninsula. The invasion leaves the island hares devastated and terrified. Their spiritual leader, the revered Golden Hare, summons Tipsy to his cave. He has a mission for him that will, if successful, deliver from persecution the hares of both his own island home and the ones who dwell on the Big Island across the sea. And Tipsy is told by the Great One that a Humanik female will assist him in his mission.A riveting page-turner, Time to Stop Running is an impassioned plea on behalf of an animal that threatens no-one and yet must bear the brunt of man's inhumanity. If Watership Down was a PR boost for rabbits, here's an equally deserved accolade to the gentle hare.This is a book of life, love, and liberation. You'll not be released from its enchanting grip until you reach The End... ***
