Character Analysis: Fear By Michael Grant

We all have people in our lives that we cannot trust. It may be the kids in your school, or even a relative. In the book Fear by Michael Grant, the two sides are started to believe that one another is going to betray the other. The barrier has almost completely changed color, and everyone is afraid of what will happen next. Sam thinks he could light up the town with his light hands, but that may not be enough. Many of the kids think riots will break out as a result of the barrier changing color. This book deserves an A, because the character development makes you feel for all of the characters. The book has a great story line, and it keeps you reading. Also, the book gives a valuable lesson.

The story also tosses you between characters in different location (Personification ☺). It always leaves you hanging, and that is what I like in a story because that is what makes you want to read it more. This book deserves an A because the story line is so good that you cannot put the book down once you
