Wolf Rider

Summary: Wolf Rider by Avi
Review: Fifteen-year-old Andy just moved to a new house and a guy claming to be Zeeke says that he just killed someone. That hits Andy like a bucket of bolts. He takes the whole thing seriously, and nobody belives what he is saying. Not even the police think that it was a real call! The chain of eventa is kinda slow until the last couple of chapters. Personaly, I think that this could have happened to a real person. I also think that this book could use a little more "zip". This book seams to be of the horror and nonfiction-yet-still-fiction type of book. I would recomend this book to people that read on grade levels between 4 and 7, no more and no less. Also for those people that like a horror story without the gory details. I liked this book to a 3-star degree because it actually made it seem like you were watching a movie, but you select what the person looks like and where he is.

Summary: Highly Reccomended
Review: I think that most of this book is real.It sounds right about the mother dying and real feelings about it.It is a real good book but ther is one downside.Who would react after someone calling and saying I just killed someone on the phone. Would'nt you hang up?Ask your self that question. Would you take that seriously?Then from that it was a very inspiring book.I think that about the parents treating him the way they did was realistic and all.When he went to the police and then he called the school and when he had no record of prank-calls then why would he call the school counsler?I highly recommend this book. It is good.The best and most realistic part is when the parents and friends act.So get this book.

Summary: Wolfrider: A Tale of Terrific Writing
Review: I really thought this book was very good. It is about a boy who got a call from someone who said he killed someone. This starts out the book directly, and there are lots of twists and turns on the way through the book! Just wait until you find out who Zeke (the caller)really is! I definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes suspense in a book.

Summary: The one thriller that you can read more than once
Review: Maybe I'm extremely weird, but it's been nine years since I bought this book, and I still read it just for fun every once in a while. The characters are great, as well as the plot. What may be this novel's most endearing quality is that it not only shows suspense, but it also accurately portrays the volatile relationship between a father and a teenage son. That's rare in a young adult book. And I'm so tired of reading thrillers about wimpy girls who can't take care of themselves, but this book didn't have that. This book had no trouble keeping my attention.

Summary: Wow! Where to begin?
Review: The author tries to create a world where every adult and person of authority acts irrationaly; even the father of the protangonist does not believe his him, though the author tries to portray the son and his father as having a close relationship and responsibility to care for each other. We are given no proof as why none of the adults even listen to him. Does he have a record with the police concerning crank-calls? The answer is no. So why aren't the police in this book doing there job? The answer is the author never throughly thought this story through. This story play upon the paranoia of a teenager as being the outsider, the outcast, standing alone in the world, and trying to be a hero in the end. The funny thing about this book is the author tries to create a reality based world and fails miserably.

Summary: Yuck!
Review: Talk about gross!If you like horror stories than get it but I'm not into that stuff!I had to read it and it almost made me sick!The main character is Andy Zadinski and he doesn't grow up at all!I have no taste for this book.So for good advice DON'T GET THIS BOOK!Sorry to be grumpy sounding but at the first of the book a guy calls Andy and tells him that he has killed someone and then at the end he ends up trying to kill someone but he dies!So don't get it.Recommened!(It doesn't even need a star)

Rating:
Summary: The beginning was good
Review: It started out good and then got dull and became a book that sucked. we did not get the excitement we needed,and we did not get the point. Andy seemed like a confused character that needed a lot more work. The next time Avi writes a book he should put more thought into his character.

Rating:
Summary: This was the greatest book that I have ever read.
Review: I loved the suspence and the thrill. it kept me on the edge of my seat. I have never read any other of Avi's books but I intend to.

Rating:
Summary: This book is a wonderful "read-aloud."
Review: I have used this book for several years to read aloud to my seventh grade classes. The suspense starts to build with the very first line. Even though it slows a bit before it picks up the pace again, Avi does not lose the audience. This author definitely knows and understands young people.

Rating:
Summary: A Very Real Book Topic
Review: This book was great. Not the best but very close. It has action and suspense and is very thrilling. It may be slow starting out but it is worth it to know the ending. The main theme of the book snatched my attention in the very beginning. Read it people!
