Book Review - The Recruit

Book Review by Amy:

The recruit is a exceptional book which combines a secret agency with real life.  This great concoction of ideas forms an exquisite storyline.  The book follows the life of an ordinary boy as he goes through an intense training programme.  This is a great book with a mix of emotion, action and real life circumstances.  After reading this you will wish you were a recruit!

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.

December - The Immortals - by Paul Stewart and Chris Riddell

 This review is from:  G. LAWE
The Immortals is the final instalment in the Edge Chronicles, but it can be read as a stand alone book too. It's epic, packed with adventure, I love the creatures and monsters in it. Some bits are really tense and dark, and then there are moments are real humour to keep the reader guessing. The illustrations match the text perfectly and bring the world of the Edge to life. I love the way nothing is black and white in the story, there are real moral dilemmas which the characters must face and it gets you thinking about what you would do as the reader. I really enjoyed it and would definitely recommend it!!!
