Ark Angel
Anthony Horowitz
Action/ Adventure
Just right
1. In the book Ark Angel by Anthony Horowitz, Alex who is the main character has just escaped the building he was being held captive at. In this scene Alex has just gotten out of the room he's locked in and all of a sudden he realizes there is a fire in this building. He must escape quickly! He runs around the floor trying to find an exit. He finds the stairs and runs down them. He is breathing in heavy smoke and doesn't know if he will be able to make it out in time. He gets to the bottom and through all the smoke he sees the light! Alex runs out to escape but is met face to face with a henchman of the bad organization Force Three and cannot escape. He will die if he goes any farther outside or up the building. Alex must live and the best shot he has is going up so he runs up to the top of the building. Once on the roof he sees buildings around him but knows he will die trying to jump to one of the roofs of those buildings. Meanwhile the fire department and police are arriving and see Alex. Two firemen start running to the roof of the building closest to Alex. Between the two buildings there is a sign with wire attached between the buildings. Alex having tightrope walked when he was younger, tightrope walks across and just as the wire snaps he jumps and lives.
2. The detail in the book is just like the
detail in all of the other books I have read by Horowitz. Very crazy books that
need a lot of detail to make sense overall seem to be the only books that
Horowitz writes. These books are amazing action books that make you never want
to put the book down.
3. I think the theme in this book is man vs
nature. I think this because the evil organization that Alex is fighting is
fighting for nature against the human race. They want all of the humans to
treat the earth well and want to destroy the humans if they do anything to hurt
the earth. These people are very crazy and would do anything for the earth. The
weird thing is not many people know about this organization which makes them
even more dangerous.
4. My favorite character in this book and so far in this series is
Alex. There are so many things that make him interesting because from a child
his uncle had trained him to be a spy. Alex also is very good at being undercover. He always makes the book cool because he knows how to get out of a bad situation. I also think that it is cool that he is so young and is also a spy. I wish I could be a spy.
5. My least favorite character is Kaspar. Kaspar is the leader of Force Three the bad organization. Kaspar is also a eco-terroist but is willing to kill for the world. It is very bad that he tries to kill Alex. I don't like that he takes joy in taking peoples lives. He also has a tattoo of the world around his head. I think that he is weird.
6. My prediction for the book is that Ark Angel is going to be something more than just a title. I think it may be something that could hurt the earth and thats why Kaspar and his men try to kidnap the owner of Ark Angel's son. I think that a big battle will begin and Alex will have to end up saving the world once again.
