The answer should have been:” There aren’t any East Anglian hedgehogs sir, they’ve all been eaten by the badgers” – but high salaries ensure a high level of “conservational correctness”. “Will they be eating flattened hedgehogs”? – “Oh yes”, he replied. “ What will the sea eagles be eating?, I asked. So, fortunately the proposed scheme was kicked into touch.Īt an exhibition on the Norfolk coast I spoke to the RSPB representative.

America treads cautiously around Maxon’s father, King Clarkson, who believes she is not obedient or ladylike enough to be the next queen. With her mind finally set on Maxon, America knows she has to win the prince from her competitor, Kriss. She struggled to choose between the prince and her poor, secret boyfriend, Aspen. America and her family are Fives.Įarlier in “The Selection” trilogy, America received an invitation to register for a televised competition called the Selection.The winner would get to marry Maxon Schreave, the prince of Illéa. Seventeen-year-old America Singer lives in the futuristic kingdom of Illéa, where the society is divided into eight castes. |
