Read around the world - Finland

I had originally bought Big Game for my son to read, but it stayed on the book shelf untouched. I have a break from study at the moment and wanted to read something for pleasure and this title caught my eye. As a bonus, I can also tick off another country in my read around the world challenge.

Big game by Dan Smith is about a Finnish boy who turns 13 in a day. It's tradition to go into the woods for a day and a night and whatever you hunt signifies what type of man you will become. Oksari goes into the woods to face his life changing adventure but it doesn't go to plan as Air Force one crashes and his adventure now is to save the US president.

The book was 256 pages long and a quick read full of action. I can now highly recommend commend it to my son. The 15th book completed in my challenge.
