Scorpia

 An Alex Rider adventure.

 

Anthony Horowitz

 

Everybody says that Alex Rider is the spitting image of his father. Alex knows nothing about his father, also that he died in a so-called Airplane crash. And Alex wants to know more. Also at Yassen Geogrovich’s death bed he speaks his final words to Alex “Your father was a great friend of mine. We were partners. He was a killer like me. He even saved my life once. Go to Venice. Find Scorpia, and you will find your destiny…”  But in Alex’s new adventure he will seek out this Scorpia and he will know more about his father.

I liked this book because of the action and adventure on every page. It really pushes the book forward. Like when Alex encounters a Scorpia agent and throws him in an underground cell, and there is a flood coming in Venice and from the walls almost green from being submerged in water several times. He has to find a way out or he will drown and die. He finds a hole in the ground and squeezes his way into the tunnel; he hopes that the tunnel leads out or he will die. That’s why I really loved this book.

This series of books is not just for kids, but for young adult readers too. Check out the rest of the Alex rider series. I would rate this book 4.5 paws.

The Great Guild Wars 2

Have you ever wondered what would happen if you live in a world full of fantasy? Well this answer lies in this game named, Guild Wars 2.

Guild Wars 2 allows the players to choose their own race, class, and the way they look. Customizing characters can change the gameplay. In Guild Wars 2, players are challenged to different quests, which allow them to receive new loot and to level up (Player Versus Environment). There are different kinds of monsters, people, and bosses to fight, even other players (Player Versus Player). Players choose skills, which can change the way the characters fight. Crafting different weapons, armor, and potions adds a different dimension to the gameplay. Players can create their own guild or join other people’s guilds (groups). Friends can support other player’s missions. The highest level possible is level 80, but the higher the level, the better the loot. This is what makes Guild Wars 2 an amazing game.

Guild Wars 2 is a MMORPG (massively multiplayer online role-playing game) video-game developed by ArenaNet, published by NCsoft and released on August 28, 2012. Guild Wars is for Windows 7 and Mac OS X.

What I like about this game is how you can travel around the world, defeat monsters, receive loot, the customization, and the gameplay. For example, my uncle and I play, and together we defeated a big boss, and I received rare great sword. We can play for hours and it feels like no time at all!

The only problem with this game is that sometimes there are glitches. These are annoying bugs in the game that sometimes freeze play. One time I was stuck in between rocks and I had to quit the game and start over again. That’s really annoying!

Overall, it’s a great and amazing game to play, and I give Guild Wars 2 four out of five paws.

Mans Best Marine!

When Guns Dempsey joins the Marine Corps, he knows without a doubt that he will make a great dog handler. He’s always been good with dogs. In fact, he’s good with people too. So when his commanding officer gives him Loki, the German Shepherd, it’s not what he expects. Will Loki learn not to be so afraid?
I really liked this book because I like war stories and dogs. Most of this book centers on fighting and war and it’s about man’s best friend.  What an exciting read!

If you are a fan of war stories, I recommend this book and give it four paws.
