Michael Vey Hunt For The Jade Dragon Summary

574 Words3 Pages

I am an eighth grade student at Tomahawk Creek Middle School. I understand that a committee plans to create a required reading list for high school students to choose for their English course. I would like the committee to consider the book I recently read, Michael Vey: Hunt for the Jade Dragon by Richard Paul Evans, for this list. This was a very good book. It had VERY interesting characters, a VERY intriguing plot, and it also has a very good message. A very crucial part of a good book is well written characters. If this book was judged solely on it’s characters it would be a home run. Michael Vey is an amazing character he seems like a normal teenager but from reading just a few a few pages in (8 pages to be exact) you find out that …show more content…

This book starts out as the characters are in dismay while coming back from a difficult and heartbreaking mission and all of the sudden they have to leave to go on another really hard one. There is very awesome scenes in the book when they are breaking out of the Starxource plant and when they are rescuing Jade Dragon. There are many twists and turns in this book. Some I didn’t see coming and some I had to reread that page. I also like there is no mature content like curse words or other things. Finally, this book another thing I love about this book is the connection between Taylor and Michael. In one of the earlier books Michael gets captured and Doctor Hatch (Executive Director of Elgen Inc.) and Tara (Taylor’s identical twin sister) come to his cell. Tara pretends to be Taylor and tells him that she was just faking about their relationship and that she was just trying to draw him to Dr. Hatch. Once Tara leaves Michael says to Dr. Hatch “Tell Tara that I know she and Taylor are identical twins, but she’s really not as pretty.” This proved to me that Michael and Taylor had formed an unbreakable bond. In Hunt for Jade Dragon one of the chapters are just for the “prom” for Michael and

The way that Michael Shaara has written this novel shows how truly wonderful he was as an entertaining writer. There was one thing that I did not like about it and that was the pace. I would have liked if the author would have written before the date of June 29th, and explained a little more of what was happening. Another little critique I would make would be to not drag on the days so intensely.

Overall, I thought that The Lord of the Files was the most influential and was an integral part of the 9th grade learning process, and must be kept in the curriculum next year in my opinion. I think this book should stay in the curriculum because of how action-packed it was, and never got boring. Another book we read this year was True Grit by Charles Portis, I thought this book was important in our learning process, but not as essential as Lord of the Flies was because it don't feel like you got to know Mattie, the main character, as well as you did with the boys on the island. Also, I feel like the hunting part took too long, and got boring near the end. Lastly, Catcher in the Rye by JD Salinger, was quite necessary for us because of the valuable life-lessons it taught, and how events aren't always going to go your way.
