Book Review #4 Michael Vey: Battle of the Amphere

     Michael Vey: Battle of the Amphere Is an action packed novel by Richard Paul Evans. It starts out when Michael wakes up in a Peruvian villagers hut. The villagers show Michael another electric kid they've been taking taking care of named Tessa. Then the villagers take both Michael and Tessa to an old friend, Jaime. Jaime takes both of them to his camp which is quickly  found by Elgen guards. Michael, Tessa, and Jaime escaped using teamwork. After they escaped Jaime contacted the voice using a radio, He told them they needed to save the rest of the Electroclan. Then Michael, Tessa, and Jaime made a plan to save the Electroclan. They went to save the Electroclan, but while they were saving them Wade was shot and killed. The Electroclan and Jaime went to Lima, where half of the Electroclan left. Only five had stayed: Michael, Ostin, Taylor, Jack, and McKenna. The Electroclan, Jaime and a man that came to help made a plan to destroy The Amphere, a high tech super yacht. While they were on the boat, Hatch found them and was unaware that the Electroclan had explosives. Then Hatch fled the boat because the other half of the Electroclan blew up one of the other Elgen boats. All of the Electrocan escaped. After that they contacted the voice and he gave them another task, and that,s where it ends.



     I thought the theme was "when you work together you can accomplish almost anything." My first example is when the Elgen guards found Michael,Tessa, and Jaime at the camp. Michael, Jaime, and Tessa used teamwork to defeat them. "Put your hands up, Vey" (p. 54). My second example is when Michael, Jaime, and Tessa saved the Electroclan. "Ian, where are the others" (p. 108). My last example is when the Electroclan were destroying the Amphere, they used teamwork to plant the explosives and get out of there. "We all looked back to look at the explosion" (p. 228). These are the reasons why I think the theme is "when you work together you can accomplish almost anything.

     I definitely recommend this book to readers. If yo like action books, this is for you. If you like good guy versus bad guy books, its for you. If you like super hero type books, its for you. I recommend you read the first two though, enjoy!
