Publisher's summary

Oksi - the daughter of the legendary falcon, Frightful - does things her own way. And when a poacher climbs the steel girders of a bridge to Frightful's nest, Oksi's refusal to act like her brothers keeps her from being captured. Unfortunately Frightful (who can't count) thinks the man has stolen all of her babies, and she abandons the nest. Luckily Frightful's friend, Sam Gribley, comes to Oksi's aid.

This delightful continuation of the story from Frightful's Mountain serves as a great introduction for young listeners to the lessons of forest life.

Frightful's legacy

The whole series of books about Sam and Froghtful are special to me. This little addition was a pleasant surprise.

Descend Enough for a Short Story

Not as interesting as the other three previous books, but it still had its moments. I really got tired of hearing the phrase “But Oksi does things her own way.” Like okay we kid it, she does things her own way. What else is new?

the last book enjoyable book of the series

I went through and listened to the entire series the first book is amazing, the second book was okay and kind of enjoyable. the third one is absolute trash where they prostitute every character for various forms of child activism rather than actually tell a story. so if you're looking for a good place to stop the end of This book is it it only gets worse from here.

Good series but this is disappointing

We loved the Frightful series but were very disappointed when we wasted a whole credit on this short, not very well told, or written, one chapter, 20 minute audible...

What a waste

My three children and I have listened to the other 3 books in the series so I didn’t hesitate to purchase this one when I saw it. I guess it’s on
me that I didn’t notice it was only 14 minutes but what a waste of credit. I wish I could return it. And the book wasn’t even good. If you’ve read the others just be done.
