Fahrenheit 451

By Ray Bradbury
AR
RL 5.2
PTS 7.0

     In an ignorant world where firemen create fires instead of put them out, and cars can drive at 120 mph, Guy Montag lives a normal life. That is, before he meets Clarisse McClellan.  His encounter with her changes him in ways he could never imagine, and now he has to struggle with doing what's right, and doing what will keep everyone safe.  And during the midst of war, Montag could be the world's only hope.  I would recommend this book for anyone who likes dystopian fantasies and is okay with old-timey language.

     Jason Haley is an average teenage wizard.  He is a normal mischief making person, but it comes to a bottle-head when he steals trinkets from a secret cave.  Suddenly everyone wants him dead that is.  Trinity is under attack, so will the trinkets help them?  Read the epic conclusion to "The Warrior Heir" trilogy to find out.  I would recommend this book to anyone who has read the previous books in the series.

RL 5.0
PTS 17.0

     Seph McCauley is anything but normal.  He's a good student, but wherever he goes, trouble seems to follow.  It seems to stop when he moves to a school called "The Havens." There, Seph has the prospect to learn wizardry.  Seph finds out that everything has strings attached, and maybe wizardry isn't worth it.  I would recommend this book to anyone who has read the first in the series, "The Warrior Heir."
