The title of my story is The Mysterious Benedict Society.
It's author is Trenton Lee Stewart. This
series has four books in it. This is the first of the series. The genre is Si-fi. This is a story about teens saving
the world. His only other book series is Flood Summer. I’ve not had the
opportunity to read it.
This story starts with an ad in the newspaper has given a
question, and people have come to answer. Only four children have made it thru.
All four are orphans. Their names are Reynie Muldoon, George (Sticky)
Washington,Kate Weatherall, and Constance Contraire. The four were then taken
to see the head honcho, Mr. Benedict. He gives them a mission to infiltrate a
school run by Mr. Curtain, a man who
looks remarkably like Mr. Benedict. The four are used to save the world from
Mr. Curtain.
I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars. I gave it that
because it is well written with tons of detail but the book could have been
shorter(at 500 pages). I recommend this book to anyone who likes mystery or
anyone that likes the author, Lemony Snicket (Daniel Handler).Trenton and
Daniel both write books that make us
wanting to read more and keeping is on our toes. A reason to want to read the
book are if you like books with puzzles.
Book Review by Cameron Y.
I agree with Cameron In the fact that the book is detailed and that it is one of those books that is hard to put down. This book is just the right mixture of suspense, mystery, and originality to keep you interested in it and never wanting to put it down. I disagree about the length because I think that the book needed to be that long to get all of the information across that the book needed to make it interesting and for it to make sense. Because of all of this information the book can get a little confusing and character can become hard to follow. Overall i agree with Cameron that this book is pretty good and as for the length i think that it is left up to preference.
