Alex Da Kid explained to Billboard magazine: "It was my goal to write and produce an anthemic song that would resonate with anyone that has grown up in or been around underprivileged surroundings." Not only have this amazing couple sacrificed much over the last 15 years in an effort to save the Tenkile and other species but in so doing have transformed the lives of the PNG people in this remote area. To see the changes and how they succeeded to get these people on side was truely amazing and inspirational. Lily had her fairy tale notions about what life in the jungle would be like, even though Omar did his best to dispel them. I love the way Ferencik writes about the jungle and its web of life, a balance of things eating and being eaten. Everything she writes feels credible. Some people may have qualms about a telepathic communication between some of the characters known as ‘shine’ but for me, it fit right into the story. A major character in this novel, the jungle never plays favorites. Omar tells Lily “you stay alive here because you paid attention.” And sometimes even that isn’t enough.

You'll want to put a Do Not Disturb sign on the door before you start reading this Heart-stopping, Powerful, Terrifying, 5★ thriller! We also have a telepathic shaman that Lily may or may not be able to communicate with and a river boat captain named “For God’s Sake” and I’ll leave you to find out the origin of that name.

Ferencik is clearly intending to demonstrate the harshness of living in the jungle, but the narrative mostly comes off as grotesque and off-puttingly gratuitous. I'm not a fan of nastiness for nastiness' sake, and unfortunately Ferencik seemed to delight in it here. I could have done without the creepy fixation on genitalia as well. One more said: "If Josie is going into the jungle..after watching her reaction to the creatures on today....she is going to be hilarious." TERRIFIED Josie Gibson screamed at spiders and snakes on This Morning today - after The Sun revealed she's signed up to I'm A Celebrity ... Get Me Out Of Here! Truly the most unique and thoroughly original books I’ve had the pleasure to read in a long time. Not a thriller. No mind bending twists. How can this be, you ask? Simple…it’s just outstanding, imaginative writing as the author guides you on a colorful adventure into a civilization few have ever witnessed or experienced.

What kept this book from being a solid 5* for me was that I just couldn’t believe it was all plausible, but that’s o.k., this is fiction. I really liked this book, it was well written with characters that I could get into and care about and the research must have been extensive for this book. The author does state that the book is partially based on a friend’s actual experience. Yossi is washed away by the river, leaving Kevin behind. Without a knife, tools, or any kind of survival training, Yossi must improvise shelter and forage to survive. He begins to give up hope after losing all sense of direction, wondering if he will survive the jungle. He is alone for at least two weeks, during which time he has several hallucinations regarding his past. So, what’s coming? For the Support class, we have the Type 11 LMG Chapter Reward and the Model 37 shotgun, which should cater to your mid- and short distance needs. Assault players will be able to equip the M2 Carbine, an agile and fully automatic rifle great for clearing the jungles. I probably could have (grudgingly) accepted all of the above if this had been a better story, but the plot misses at almost every turn, going from slow to obnoxious to improbable. In all, an irritating disappointment of a book. Windsor, Harry (8 August 2017). " 'Jungle': Film Review | Melbourne 2017". The Hollywood Reporter. Prometheus Global Media.
