— Review of Always 2021 single work children's fiction'After 16 years, Morris Gleitzman brings his best-selling series to a close, saying an emotional goodbye to his hero, Felix. The books have now stretched well beyond their beginnings, where Gleitzman introduced young readers to the horrors of the Holocaust through the eyes of his young protagonists, Felix, a Jewish boy, and Zelda, the Polish girl with Nazi parents whose life he saved. Since then, we’ve seen Felix as an old man in Now, and on the cusp of his adolescence again in After, Maybe and Soon.' (Introduction)
