Rating: Summary: A Violent Young Adult Novel: The White Fox Chronicles Review: Bringing together the three books titled "Escape," "Return," and "Breakout," this young adult novel is set in the year 2057. The world is a far different and more hostile place. The United States of America no longer exists, broken apart by the evil tyranny of the Confederation of Consolidated Republics known as the CCR. The CCR controls most of the former United States through their jack booted thugs as well as former Americans turned traitors. Prison camps are everywhere as the CCR seeks to further control the dwindling population.Enter Cody Pierce, a fourteen-year-old boy who has had to grow up the hard way. Confined in a prison camp by the evil Colonel Sidoron, he is secretly plotting his escape. He has lulled the commandant and his troops into believing that he too has joined their ranks. Bestowed with the nickname " the white fox" for his actions and blonde hair, he soon shows them his true nature. He has a secret agenda and plans to make good use of their belief that he is one of them. Soon he makes his first escape from the clutches of the CCR and begins a journey that will take him full circle back to this camp. He will fight for survival repeatedly and be forced to kill and kill again. This novel, while written, is extremely violent in nature and downright rough in spots. This novel is currently on my local school district's recommended reading list for middle school, which covers grades 6 thru 8. I'm not sure that is appropriate and that it wouldn't be better suited to an older grade level. Like any other novel or story, whether the work is appropriate or not depends on the maturity of the reader. As a parent, I read the books my children are assigned and would strongly caution parents to read several sections of this 280-page novel if not all of it to get a feel for the character as well as the violence within this novel. This is a very good book that is simply not appropriate for some children.
Rating: Summary: CCR RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Review: Cody a kid who is stuck in a time when America has fallen. The year is 2057, about 54 years after now. There are nukes and many arsenals. The Republics blown up the White House and the Pentagon. Then one by one the states fell. first 50 then 49 then 48 then 47 then 46 and etc. The U.S. are enslved and badly treated. Cody gts out of camp with a captured pilot who knows very vital info. The two set out for the base somewhere on earth. When they get there or if they even can or if they get out of camp or read the book or else....... This book is like the bomb. When u pick it up it won't stop blowing good and super cool scenes at you. There is a whole lot of killin though. Cody ,(maybe white fox) kill the new republic soldiers. Cody usualy blows them up or stabbs them or shoot them to death or incinerate the into a puddle. he does not chop off their heads. There is a lot of detail too. Something like "her head was swollen twice the size and her broken arm was twisted and dried blood was all over her body". There are many other very descriptive phrases. When you finish the book write another review of how you liked it.
Rating: Summary: Best Book Eva Wrtten Review: Fourteen year old Cody who lives in a prison guarded by CCR (Confederation of Consolidated Republics) solders.

His friend Franklin gave him a place to stay for a while. After that he goes to try to complete his plan. Along the way he finds some allies and gets there help, but first he has to do something for them. The story is about loyalty, trust and most of all friendship. Through out the book Cody makes friends that help him, and teach him stuff. Cody learns fast and almost never forgets. That's why the CCR called him the White fox. Cody has a lot against the CCR, and all of them have to do with friends and revenge. This story is mostly action and violence.
