Hatchet

             The book Hatchet is about a 13 year old boy that is trapped in the Canadian wilderness after his plane goes down. In this book the main character Brian has to fight for his life alone. Brian has to defend himself and find food and a city boy doesn't know all of these things. Brian is lost and he only has a hatchet.
             The book Hatchet wasn't the best book but it wasn't bad the only part I really didn't like was when he is extremely hungry and he can't remember that he saw a survival pack that could save his life and when he finds it he gets saved after about 3 days but that's only because of the radio transmitter but I don't care because I just didn't like it didn't have enough action.
             The hole book wasn't bad so I don't have any regrets for reading this book so in all I am happy for this book.Brian Robeson, the sole passenger in a single-engine plane, is on his way to visit his father in the Canadian oil fields when his pilot suffers a heart attack. Alone and desperate, Brian guides the plane to a landing on an isolated lake. In a straightforward but compelling narration, Coyote captures Brian's terror, anguish and exultation as he learns to survive alone in the wilderness. Abridgment is imperceptible. Musical effects underscore an air of suspense, mystery and dread. D.M.L. The story of thirteen-year-old Brian Robeson's survival in the Canadian wilderness is undone by this unfortunate production. Coyote, whose voice is perfect for telling this story, reads at one pace and in one tone of voice throughout, eliminating tension and suspense, as well as humor and compassion. Background music interrupts when the listener is most drawn in, making concentration on the narrative difficult. A sad rendering of a thrilling adventure. S.G.
