Summary: A totally gross book. I loved it!
Review: This book is great! Sure, there are a few gross parts, but hey, it's about a monster, what do you expect? I've recommended it to one of my friends, she loved it. She said it was gross. Now, the part about the monster biting at little stumbs because a guy's feet were gone is kind of gross, but that's not the best part. Well, I don't want to ruin the book for you so... GET READING!!!!!!

Summary: Another great masterpiece by Zindel
Review: This book is very good and you will find it hard to put down. It is my favorite Zindel book second to Raptor. It is worth the time and is constant action. You will be asking yourself who is really the bad guy. The only reason I gave it a 4 was because I reserve 5 for books in which are absolutely flawless and I could read it twice in one day and it would be just as exiting the second time.

Summary: A great, flip-till-you-rip book!
Review: This book was too cool! We were getting ready to pick our books at the school library, when I came across a cool dinosaur head! I picked it up, checked it out, and that night, didn't stop reading untill I finshed the book 2 hours later!! Yea, sure, it's not for the weak at heart (ie, Running over and half-eaten Jesse Sanderson's head on a Jet Ski,or having someones blood splatter all over the boss' daughter who's just trying to steer the boat, or getting hit in the head with the same person's disembodied arm!), but hey, come on.I think this book is real cool, and now I HAVE to read The Reef of Death, which is the sequel.

Summary: Cap'n, This Ain't No Sturgeon!!
Review: This is probably one of the best books I have ever read. And boy have I alot of books. This is the way a suspense novel shuold be written. Yet another masterpiece by Zindel!
My Favorite character is Loch, who befriends a young Plesiosaur and names him Wee Beastie. But the Plesiosaurs have already killed 2 people. Jesse, the town drunk and Erdon Cavenger's Photographer. However, Loch and his friends still try to help save Wee Beastie and his family from Cavenger, a self-centered old man who will stop at nothing to capture and possibly kill Wee Beastie and his family just to be richer than he already is and become famous.
Will Loch, his sister Ziadee, and Sarah, Cavengers daughter, succeed, or will Cavenger capture the Plesiosaurs and become famous?

Summary: A fun novel for a student interested in fantasy monsters.
Review: This story is about a boy nicknamed Loch who finds a baby Lochness monster and is trying to save it. There are people who want to become rich by capturing a Lochness monster. Loch feels he needs to save all the monsters. The most exciting part of the book is near the end when ships are trying to capture escaping Lochness monsters. At times the book is boring when characters are introduced. I would definitely recommend this to other teenage students but not to teachers.
Rating:

Summary: Loch, The Stereotipical Teen-Targeter
Review: When I looked at the back of the book and saw "the book for the reluctant young reader" I knew from the first minute that it was written for people my age. Then I assumed that it would, like most books written for teens, be mediocre. And I was right. Loch was like the many famous books of the Goosebumps series. I had read a few works by Paul Zindel and had the same impression about all of them but The Doom Stone. Loch was exactly how most of Paul Zindel's writing was; very bloody. It was definitely written to satisfy the violent nature of teenage boys. Packed to the epilogue with gore and huge plesiosaurs, it makes me wonder why some books that I have read that were written for boys my age In the 1800s by G.A. Henty are a lot less gory than Loch. The answer is that violence was more pervasive back then and people were more sensitive to it as a result. If I compared Loch to another book written by Paul Zindel, The Doom Stone, I would find that this was not his best work. I rather would say that it was reminiscent of most teen books in the genre.
