“The gardener. He worked over here . Piper said he got released from terminal island a few weeks ago.”
This is a book about a family that live on Alcatraz Island with the most wanted cons ever. Mathew “moose” Flanagan is trying to get his sister in to a really good school on the main land but things get sticky. You should never mess with cons as moose finds out. I like this book because the book is very good at making you think you are there in the book you fell the fear the happiness every thing seems so real I love it. If you are going to read this book I think that you should read the first book.

In “My Sword hand Is Singing”, the people are friendly, some are quiet as some dead. The book is about the undead. At first, all seems nice, but then it gets worse as more and more people become undead. If it is not stopped by Peter and his friend, then I’m afraid it will be the end.
Peter is a young boy how has been travelling around the world he is the main character and has been wanting to go home he has to help his dad and cosin and trying to find out what is going on in the village the shadow queen which is taking people away and making them disappear like hisn friend anges. He then has to find a sword so that he can fight and kill the shadow Queen

Dervish likes to keep his ghosts happy!
Grubbs (the main character) has just witnessed something that no person should ever witness… Grubbs Grady lost his parents and sister to DEMONS! Dervish (Uncle Dervish) takes Grubbs home to live with him but what but what Grubbs doesn’t no is Dervish is a demon slayer and he knows everything about them. When he goes back to Dervishes house he meets a friend (Billy) but it turns out Grubbs father had an affair with Billy’s mother so they are actually brothers, but there is a disease that goes round in the family, they turn into were-wolves when a full moon comes then every full moon they change and there is only one way to kill the disease for one person each time… to face the Demon Master (Lord Loss). Lord Loss will play one person at chess and his familiars (Artery and Vein) will fight the other but if Lord Loss won he would take there souls but if he lost one has to go to Lord Losses and there body will just do the basics: walk, run, eat, sleep but not speak or have any emotions so that’s what they done just to get Billy back to a normal human being. They won the game of chess then Dervish went to the Demonata universe to fight, weeks passed, months and months passed. Grubbs walks into the kitchen and there is a voice “Hello Grubbs” he turns round to see Dervish just sitting there! HE WAS BACK!!

A little boy was found on a doorstep. And now he’s living with his foster mum. He finds four little foxes and he looks after them now he loves them so much.
Then he runs away and now they live on the boat with this man who has a boat.
At the last stop they stop at his house then they notice a police car outside his house.
And the man and his wife adopted him and they become a family.The police said to the little boy we were looking for you and you now have a lovely home now.

The book I read was called The Sorceress and in the London central train station and Dee (who works for the Dark masters) has put monsters at all the train stations and airport and police are checking every car all around the world, tiring to catch them. But a Genii Cucullati (flesh eaters) has spotted them and they started to run. Nicholas throws a bracelet witch turns into mud and the creatures are knocked out. They quickly runaway and meet up with an old friend of Nicholas’ he drives them to his house. On the way they past a lot of monsters that look like humans but are not. Once they get to the house Nicholas tries to contact his wife Perenelle who is trapped on Alcatraz by using an old bit of magic he gets to her. But creatures attack her Nicholas tries to save her by giving her some of his aura but his is to weak then the twins help but suddenly the connection breaks and creatures are all around them using their aura they gave their postion away. Theyquickly set the moat on fire ( they can do this because it is made up of oil and metal ) but dee puts it out then thet quickly get away in the car. They go to a little hut which is near stoneheage.

When Milo found a package addressed to him from his Grandfather he didn’t know what to think. He opened the package and he found a tollbooth a car and a rule book and a map.

He will meet some interesting and different people into this strange and different place through a tollbooth. He is entering a place and a that he doesn’t know anything but he will certainly have an adventure he will never ever forget. I would recommend this book because it is a good book and fun and interesting.

Bad faith book review
Life is easy for Cassandra. The privileged daughter of a rector she’s been protected the extremist gangs who enforce the one churches will.
She’s got a boyfriend Ming who is a bad influence, Ming and Cassandra fall into a corpse and they find the Bishops body. And they think this has got something to do with other murders and they wonder what happened to him what killed him.
I would recommend this book because it gives you an idea on gang fights and it has a wee bit about when Ming, Griff and Cassandra and other people get into a gang fight. it is a really good book and it is amazing its like what people do out in the big world. A bit in it finds a candle stick and they think how this might have killed the bishop.
