Seekers: Smoke Mountain

The book I finished reading is Seekers: Smoke Mountain. the author is Erin Hunter. She has written many, many books. She has written 3 different series of books. Warriors, Seekers and Survivors. Warriors is a good book. Seekers is pry the best series of books she has written. I read the first couple of pages and I didn’t really like it. In this book Lusa, Toklo and Ujurak meet Kallik at a place called Great Bear lake. Great Bear lake is where all kinds of bears meet on the longest day of the year. Lusa and Kallik meet each other there. Now all four bears are traveling together. The theme of the book is friendship because on their journey Lusa gets hit by a truck. All of her friends take care of her until she is better.

After the longest day is over all the bears meet this old bear. He tells them about the last great wilderness. It is a place where there is no people to bother the animals that live there. It’s like paradise. So off they go to the last great wilderness. But in order to get to the last wilderness you have to pass though Smoke Mountain. Smoke Mountain is a dangerous. Bears go in but none come out. While they are in Smoke Mountain some hunter spot the bears and try to kill them. The hunter get Toklo by setting a trap. It is raining and as the hunters are heading back to their cabin their truck falls off the cliff. If you want to know what happens then you’ll have to read the book.

I liked this book because it was full of suspense and action. There weren’t any major boring parts so it was hard to put the book down. If you like suspenseful and action filled books the this is the right one for you. If you don’t then you can still read it. It helps you understand not to take things for granted. To appreciate what you have.

Seekers: The Quest Begins

After her mother died a white bear named Kallik set out to find her brother. A black bear called Lusa lives in a zoo and dreams of going to the wild. A brown bear named Toklo wants to have his own territory one day. These characters are related because eventually they all meet each other and go on a quest together. The book I finished reading is Seekers: The Quest Begins by Erin Hunter. The theme of this book is you don’t know what you have until it’s gone. Kallik loses her mother and she can’t find her brother, Lusa leaves her family so she can go out in to the wild, and Toklo loses his family. Erin Hunter has written many, many books called Warriors. There are 3 complete series and then there are “extra” books about some of the characters.

Kallik had to get off the ice because summer was coming so she started heading towards where she thought land was. As she went on she meet other white bears. Most of whom probably have similar stories. Lusa’s father King used to live in the forest but then he got caught by people and they took him to the zoo. Lusa does everything she can to find out about the wild without upsetting her father. Toklo, his mother Oka, and his brother Tobi are traveling around looking for a river so they can eat salmon. Then all their lives take a turn for the worse when Tobi dies because he was sick and never got better. Then after Tobi dies Oka drives Toklo away because she can’t take care of him. 

I loved this book because it is filled with suspense and you find out what happens until two chapters later because it flip flops between Kallik, Lusa, and Toklo. There are some boring parts but every book has boring parts. And the boring parts of the book makes it better. It makes it better because then you know when the exciting parts happening. If you like action and adventure books then go to the library or bookstore and get a seekers or warriors book. Even if you don’t like action and adventure books a whole lot these books are still fun to read. When  I first started reading these books I didn’t really like action and adventure books but now I love them because of the  seeker and warrior books that Erin Hunter wrote.
