Bloody Jack

Bloody Jack is about a young orphan girl who cuts her hair and joins a man-of-war. If you get very connected to characters I suggest not to read it, the book is very violent.

King Solomons Mines

I'm not sure if I like this book yet. It's a story being told about the diamond mines of the great King Solomon.

Enders game

I have recently read Enders game. I find the use of sci-fi, which, in this case, comes in the form of aliens, mixed with the external conflict of civil and "intergalactic" war to be entreaging and draw you in to the story. The basis of this book is, in my opinion, is very near in the future and such gives it a nice mix of reality. Their computers are all very similar to today's IPad.

The Quest Begins

This book is about three bears. An polar, grizzly, and black bear. Its third person but you can still hear there emotions worries and hurts.

Halo First Strike

I am halfway done reading halo first strike. I am beginning to see that the book has a third person point of view that goes from one person to the next. The book is starting to get some new character in the story while I read it.

Ranger's Apprentice by John Flanagan

With this Ranger's Apprentice you don't know what to expect because of the title HALT's PERIL. Halt is one of the main characters and a very important one. If you were going to read this series I would suggest read them from book one so you can get right feel when something drastic happens. I like this book because of the suspense, humor and action.

Inheritance by Christopher Paolini

Not so very long ago, Eragon-Shadeslayer,Dragon Rider-was nothing more than a poor farm boy, and his dragon, Saphira, only a blue stone in the forest. Now, the fate of an entire civilization rests on their shoulders.

Long months of training and battle have brought victories and hope, but they have also brought heartbreaking loss. And still, the real battle lies ahead: they must confront Galbatorix. When they do, they will have to be strong enough to defeat him. And if they cannot, no one can. There will be no second chance.

The Rider and his dragon have come farther than anyone dared to imagine. But can they topple the evil king and restore justice to Alagasesia? And if so at what cost?

Westmark by Lloyd Alexander

This story takes place with a Printer's Apprentice who is horrible at everything but that. He makes a deal with a dwarf named Musket. Only thinking of the money that it will bring in. It back fires and ends up in the smashing of his mentor’s printing press and the death of his mentor. Now the main character killed a man trying to smash the printing press. So now he is on the wrong side of the law. So it is an action packed book and that is why I like it.
