Black Water


Black Water, 5th book of the Pendragon series.



Pendragon has chased Saint Dane to Eelong, a remote jungle based territory. Here he gets the welcome he'll never forget. A red eyed lizard attacks him, only to be driven of by quigs, which happen to be HUMANS! But then he is saved by the real 'people' of this territory, specificaly a huge, cat on two feet, or paws or whatever. These cats have apposable thumbs and great intelligence just like humans. But the humans, called gars on Eelong, are just the opposite( or are they?). Bobby gets saved by Boon, the best-friend/acolyte of the future don't-wanne-be Traveler, Kasha, who is the daughter of Seegen the current traveler, whose acolyte is named Yorn. Seegen is killed, and Pendragon and the rest have to figure out something before Saint Dane strikes.


I like this book, because it's more interesting than the others, with surprising parts and amazing parts.

The Reality Bug


The Reality Bug, the 4th book of the great series of Pendragon.



In this book, Pendragon goes to Veelox a nearly abandoned territory, abandoned because of technology. A great scientist of Veelox created the Life Light, a virtual reality, that can let you live what your mind and soul desires. Everyone is in the lifelight. And the territory is crumbling slowly, but getting faster every time a person dies in the lifelight. Bobby meets Aja Kilian, the Traveler of Veelox. She created a virus designed to crash the Life Light. But then Saint then riggs it and makes it a killing bug that will rip through people's minds and make the life light a nightmare life instead of people's dream worlds.

I like this book because it gives you an idea of what kind of amazing things could be invented and what could it do to corrupt your life.This book will keep you hanging and when suddenly every thing is ok suddenly everything becomes not ok. This is a great sci-fi version of a Pendragon book and I will keep reading.

The Never War

3rd book of the popular Pendragon series.


This book takes Pendragon back to 1937 in First Earth, the past of Second Earth. Here he meets Gunny von Dyke the traveler of First Earth. When Bobby first arrives with Spader the Cloral traveler, he ends up getting a job at the Manhattan Hotel, where Gunny works as a Captain Bellhop. They get in business with Maximillian Rose, a big time gangster.After they get hooked up, they have to get more information. So Gunny happens to know the best place, in Third Earth, the future of First and Second Earth. Then when they get back,through Rose, they uncover a plot to blow up the Hindenburg, a huge blimp which happens to be carrying Rose's payment for the Government secrets he's been selling to the Germans.

I like this book because it goes back in history at the famous time of 1937 when the Hindenburg is blown up. It's very exciting and interesting.
