Summary: Night of the Bat
Review: I really liked the book because it was gorey, scary, and etcitiny at the same time. It told lot's of good detail that helpp to get a clear picture. It was clear were I could under stand it all.

The best part of the book I thought was when the giant bat came down from the sky and grabed one of the workers. The giant bat ripped the workers neck open blood went all over. The canupe spelit off in to the river.

The auther had a good plot. Like when the auther gave all the details Like when the giant bat kiiled the guy and the crabs were eating him. He also did good on the setting on how they were in the jungle. It was hot and moist.

Summary: Average, Okay Book
Review: It was an ok book but there were definite flaws in it. First off he does a bad job of describing some of the traps used in defeating the bat- that could just be me. Once the boy was left to face the bat alone it was pretty unrealistic that he could kill it when they couldn't when the whole group was there. Zindel is capable of much better but it is still worth the time.
