The Time Travelers



The book Time Travelers by Linda Buckey-Archer is the first in the Gideon trilogy. On the cover of this book it says that this book should be read by people that love the Harry Potter series, and I agree although the story line of this book is nearly nothing like Harry Potter it has the same sort of feel to it as Harry Potter. Time Travelers is about two kids that go to visit there uncle a scientist. There uncles latest experiment is an antigravaty machine which some how distorts time and sends the two kids all the way from the twenty first century to 1763, hows that for time travel! I think this book is unique because the author has to do some research to find out all that the 17th century people wore, talked like and I think that when she put it all together in really adds to to a cool book! I have never been able to finish my reading when ever I read Time Travelers it makes me fell like I am going back into time with the two kids. I think the two friends have done a fabulous job of sinking in with there surroundings and working with the few things they have to make life worthwhile.

Brisingr





Right now I am reading Brisingr by Christopher Paolini,(I know the name looks really weird but its a word in a special language in Eragon Eldest Brisingr.) the third book in the Inheritance series or the third book after Eragon. It is a great book but at times it can be a bit hard to keep track of all the people and the events. Its mainly about a young farm boy dragged into a world of, fighting, treachery, decisions, and a hint of romance. It all started when Eragon found a strange blue stone which was really a dragon egg! Eragon named the newly hatched Dragon Saphira. Eragon and Saphira left his Uncles home in search of the Varden, the only surviving opposition of the evil king Galbatorix. Eragons uncles house was shortly after ran-shacked and his uncle was killed by evil creatures with no heart called Ra-zac.



Brisingr is a book with many unreal creatures such as were-cats, dragons and many other mystic unheard of creatures. Its a book with sword play, archery, and mystic of all, magic. Its a hard read but if your willing to put your time into it it will be a great read. I would recommend it to any other good reader who has read the series. Its really all around a fantastic book.

Eldest






Right now I am reading Eldest, the second the Inheritance series. Also better known as the book after Eragon. I think Eldest is a great book because, in it there is magic, sword play, fantastic creatures, and great detail. The main three characters are, Eragon, Saphira, and Eragon's brother Roran. The book also includes as I said earlier fantastic creatures such as Elves Dwarfs dragons and many other mystic species. 



Long ago there were people called Dragon Riders, people or Elves who learned to use magic and befriended a dragon and together they helped sustain the peace. But a young Rider named Galbatorix lost his Dragon in battle and when the council of the Riders denied him another dragon, he stole a dragon egg and befriended another even younger Rider and together they killed all the other Riders and from that day forward Galbatorix and his evil shades have ruled Alegasia with there iron fists and it is Eragon's duty to defeat Galbatorix and save Alegasia!
