First title in a rugby trilogy. Borderlands is no ordinary school – all of the students boarding there have parents in the armed forces, and the UK is drawing perilously close to war in the Middle East. New boy Woody is desperate to escape the school and find his way to his dad’s military base, but his dad has been mobilised. He’s gone. Worried and unhappy, Woody turns to the only thing that could help get him through – rugby. Particularly suitable for struggling, reluctant and dyslexic readers aged 8+

It was very exciting
If you like rugby this is one of the books that you were looking for.
its awsome cause i can relat cause I play rugby
I really like it because I really love football and that book inspired a lot just didn't deserve a 5.
This book has a life story with rugby games with the occasional twist: match report, news and speech used for action. Also there are fifteen cards to collect over three books. It's just great especially match time.
I personally think it's aimed at people who don't like reading because it isn't very long.
It is the best book ever
Loved it, because I love playing rugby.
