"Meet Spikez, a hedgehog hero for those who want more out of life than to run, jump, and collect golden rings. Armed rather more offensively than the traditional covering of prickles, he is the result of some fast-track evolution from Professor Windar - and is called upon to risk everything in defence of his woodland home. Close to the surface of lasers and computers is another story, one that will easily leap out at any reader, young or old. And that is, nature is pretty amazing in its own right. I believe that the best way to get people hooked on the natural world is to tell them great stories - and this is such a story. So dive deep into the world of Spikez and his friends and next time you are out in the wilds, see if you cannot magic up a little of the techno-whizz yourself."
