The Bronze Bow

This book is based in Israel about a boy called Daniel and about how his life was changed when he met Jesus.The basic plot is that Daniel wants blood , blood of the Romans, this is because they killed his father and his mother then died of a broken heart. There is a verse in the the bible which talks about bending a bow of bronze, this is in 2 Samuel chapter 22 v 35 , hence the title. But in meeting two siblings and Jesus his life was turned around. This is a very interesting book because you can see over time the change from a hot headed young man to an understanding friend. I think that this is a brilliant way to write a book and it would definitely be in my top ten, I will most certainly be reading more books from this author, her name is Elizabeth George Speare

The House of Hades

Yes I know strange title but the Majority of this book is based in Tartarus which is the depths of Hell. This book is part of the heroes of Olympus Series and has 583 pages this is an excellent book and is very moving I would recommend this book to any one who likes a long read. here is a link to Rick Riordans website.
My favourite character is called Leo Valdez who is an engineer and can make home made flash-bang grenades out of pretty much nothing .THAT'S WHY I LIKE HIM SO MUCH!!!
