With every great book, I wonder if it will be my last. Nevil Shute is my favorite author so I decided to read his books that I have not yet read while I still can! Pied Piper is unique in that it is so much about children. But don’t let that discourage you from reading it! It’s a great story that gets quite complicated near the end. I had been confident of a happy ending until about the last 50 pages — suddenly I was not so sure that Howard with his band of refugees would all land safely in England. Pick up this book and enjoy it! I sure did! Review: Good easy reading. - I first read 'The Pied Piper' in 1950. I have read it and re-read it and recommended it to many people over the years. I first read 'The Pied Piper" in 1950 followed by reading and re-reading all Shute's books one by one over the years. I do not think anyone was ever truly disappointed in any of them. They are the kind of books you just cannot put down. this is a fact with most of Nevile Shute's books once you get into the story. Long before this book, there was a real life ' Pied Piper' a Nicholas Winton who brought 669 children out of Nazi Europe in 2's and 3's to safety. There is a Statue of him on Prague Railway Station. Maybe Shute based his character on this man. - whatever - it is a fascinating story of courage and determination. There was a real Pied Piper - a Nicholas Winton who brought 669 children in small groups across Europe to safety. His statue stands at Prague Railway Station in his honor. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #275,207 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #2,142 in War Fiction (Books) #6,024 in Classic Literature & Fiction #8,810 in Literary Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 4.6 out of 5 stars (3,036) | | Dimensions | 5.19 x 0.73 x 8 inches | | Edition | Reprint | | ISBN-10 | 0307474011 | | ISBN-13 | 978-0307474018 | | Item Weight | 8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 320 pages | | Publication date | August 24, 2010 | | Publisher | Knopf Doubleday Publishing Group | ## Images ![Pied Piper (Vintage International) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61GtCuZXYnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is One of Nevil Shute’s Best Books! *by M***E on January 21, 2023* As I age, my eyesight is failing.

A morose tale describing the end of all things human. It's nice to see that his stories end on a good note once in a while. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.pt/products/14709668-pied-piper-vintage-international](https://www.desertcart.pt/products/14709668-pied-piper-vintage-international) --- *Product available on Desertcart Portugal* *Store origin: PT* *Last updated: 2026-04-22*
