From School Library Journal

Grade 7 Up?It

is the year 2194 in Harare, Zimbabwe. When the three over-protected

children of General Amadeus Matsika are kidnapped, they learn that

their country is a land of contrasts. Wealthy people live in homes

staffed by robots and protected by automatic dobermans, while the

poor live in a neighborhood known as The Cow's Guts, mining for

plastic within the tunnels of Dead Man's Vlei (a toxic waste dump).

Resthaven is an enclave for people who cling to the ancient

traditions, beliefs, and customs of the Shona tribe, but the nearby

MacIlwaine Hotel is a mile-high vertical city of apartments,

schools, clinics, and supermarkets. As the children journey from

one predicament to another, three unlikely detectives from an

agency known as The Ear, the Eye and the Arm attempt to rescue

them. Narrator George Guidall does a brilliant job of conveying the

complex natures of a wide range of characters. Without resorting to

vocal stereotypes, he portrays military generals, adolescent girls,

gang thugs, fey tutors, ancient spirit mediums and small boys with

equal skill. Coached by the author herself, he has mastered the

pronunciation of vocabulary from the Shona, Xhosa, Zulu and

Afrikaans languages. With its blend of high-tech futurism and

authentic African tribal folklore, Nancy Farmer's Newbery Honor

Book (Orchard, 1994) is an exciting selection for recorded fiction.

This story will challenge young adult readers?and listeners?to

think about their own lives and futures.

From Booklist

Gr. 7-10. Even readers who don't like sf will be drawn to a hero

who has a sense of humor about his serious mission. In Zimbabwe in

the year 2194, the military ruler's 13-year-old son and his younger

brother and sister leave their technologically overcontrolled home

and find themselves on a series of perilous adventures. Tendai and

his siblings encounter mile-high buildings and other miracles of

scientific advance; they also find fetid slums and toxic waste

dumps. As they're kidnapped by gangsters, forced to slave in a

plastic mine, and accused of witchcraft, they're pursued by mutant

detectives, who are both bumbling and sensitive and who always seem

to be just one step behind rescuing the children. In the best

section, the siblings find themselves in a traditional Shona

village that at first seems idyllic but turns out to also encompass

fierce sexism, ignorance, and disease. Throughout the story, it's

the thrilling adventure that will grab readers, who will also like

the comic, tender characterizations, not only of the brave, defiant

trio and the absurd detectives, but also of nearly every one the

kids meet, from street gangsters and spiritual healers to the

English tribespeople with their weird customs. Tendai's spiritual

coming-of-age is the least interesting part of the novel, but teens

will like this teenager with "a hot line to the spirit world."

From Kirkus Reviews

An author who lived for years in Africa follows a comic,

well-received first novel set in present-day Mozambique (Do You

Know Me, 1993) with this marvelous odyssey across Zimbabwe 200

years in the future. Tendai, 13, his sister Rita, and their little

brother Kuda escape their luxurious home to explore their perilous

city; Tendai's immediate aim is earning a scouting badge, but his

need to prove himself--as his protective father, Chief of Security

Masika, hasn't allowed him to do--is also compelling. Exploring

seamy ``Cow's Guts,'' these innocents are snapped up by the vast

``She Elephant'' who presides over the mines in Dead Man's Vlei,

where society's dregs scavenge toxic waste for now-rare plastics.

Escaping, they find their way to the walled enclave of Resthaven,

where traditional tribal ways are preserved, bad with good (``You

can't yank out part of the pattern and not damage the rest''); and

then to a treacherous old Englishwoman. Meanwhile, the three are

tracked by three eponymous detectives, whose folkloric talents are

ascribed to the effects of a toxic environment. Weaving African

tribal language and lore (notes and glossary appended) into a rich

tapestry featuring a witty projection of the future, a score of

vividly realized characters, and a nonstop adventure culminating in

a denouement that's at once taut, comic, and touching, Farmer has

created a splendidly imaginative fantasy, just right to pair with

Lowry's darker vision of control and freedom (The Giver, 1993).

  “哦～嗯。”

  “我喜欢过他。”

  少年励志历险故事，虽然讲的是一百多年后的事，但是感觉一点也不科幻，甚至比现在还落后，所以也很神奇啊，不过我还是觉得不如Holes好看。
