Colombre
is a big fish, very
frightening, extremely rare.
People
living on the coasts of the various seas call it different names:
kolomber, kahloubrha, kalonga, kalu-balu, chalung-gra.
The
environmentalists don't even mention it.
Naturalists
strangely enough ignore it.
Some
even claim that it doesn't exist.
The
climax of the story is one of those "coups de theatre"
which make D.B. a master of story-telling.
His
skill in inventing and his simplicity of language is very suitable
for a young audience.
Hero
of the story is a 12 years old boy, eager to follow the footsteps
of his father.
