Kids Books - Science Fiction

I just started reading this book a few days ago. It is the third book MICHAEL VEY and I love it! great book! I recommend that you read this series by Richard Paul Evans! he will be coming out with 4 more Michael Vey books. So he says, the author, there will be a total of seven books when series is finished and we hope to get the first movie out soon! cant wait! usually I don't read a series but I love this one! :]

Michael Vey: Storm of Lightning is the fifth installment in the widely popular Michael Vey series. It again stars a group called the Electroclan, a group of kids that are hunted by an evil corporation called the Elgen, because most of the Electroclan have electric powers such as throwing thunder, taking away pain, among other things. This book starts right where the last one ends, (Spoiler alert if you haven’t read the last one) where the resistance base that they stayed at was destroyed. This book is not very interesting, as almost nothing happens, and I feel that it doesn’t live up to the other books in the series, like blowing up the Ampere or rescuing the Jade Dragon. This book doesn’t really have anything like that; it’s more of a bridge to the next book, and only serves to explain some plot points that are not very interesting, nor do they have much to do with the main plot. The book introduces a new electric child, (which now leaves one more to be revealed) but this character is not used until the very end, and isn’t very interesting. This book advertises “However, I do think that Michael Vey fans should probably read this book, because it is at least a little interesting and adds a little to the overall plot. It advertises “Can the Electroclan pull together to defeat the Elgen once and for all?”, but in reality, there is barely any interaction between the Electroclan and the Elgen, making this book pretyy boring. This book gets a ⅗ for the casual reader, but a 3.5/5 for a Michael Vey fan, or at least read the other ones. I recommend this for Michael Vey fans in the 6th to 8th grade age area, as it will provide some enjoyment for Michael Vey fans, but not as much for newcomers to the series.

I had read every book that my library had available-which basically means books 1-6. But NO, not seventh! I was freaking out when my brother checked it out and I was like PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE CAN I READ IT??? And he said sure so I partied! Anyway, to the book: Even though I think that the fourth is better, the 7th one is really good! Because it is the last book to the AWESOME Michael Vey series, it's great! It ties up everything I was wondering about. (For example, DID MICHAEL DIE?!??!?!?) And all in all it is an amazing book! Michael is missing, and the Electroclan gets captured by the evil Hatch. The last electrokid is discovered! And at the end is a reveal about Michael's past that made me gasp! LOVE THIS SERIES <3 --BKS reviews

"My name is Michael Vey, and I'm more electric then an electric eel. I always thought I was the only one like me, but I'm not. I just found out that there were originally seventeen of us. And the people who made us this way, the Elgen, are hunting us down. You might say we were an accident. The Elgen corporation created a machine called the MEI (short for Magnetic Electron Induction), to be used for finding diseases and abnormalities in the body. Instead it created abnormalities us." My book is called "Michael Vey Rise Of The Elgen". It was written by Richard Paul Evans. The passage I chose was " I cupped my hands together, I was making a snowball, and pulsed. To my surprise a ball of electric formed almost like a soup bubble, except with more weight, like a Ping-Pong ball." I chose this passage because I was surprised he could do that. A connection is that I have talents too. If you want a book with action this is your book. This is a five star book. I recommend this book and the first one.

Surprisingly, Liesl & Po was one of the best non-horror books I ever read. I normally go for horror, science fiction, or future fiction books, but this one caught my eye. It was very emotional in some parts and I even found myself feeling pity for Will (an alchemist's apprentice). I recommend this book for those who like touching stories about friendship and adventures. Enjoy if you decide to read :)

Yes, Tina was right. I read till half the book at the library and it got boring as I read through. It was good for fist couple chapters, but when I reached half of the book, it suddenly got really lame. You can try this book I guess, it's only my option so, yeah. This book wasn't that impressing but it was not that waste of time.

Wars are not won with manpower, they are won with checkbooks. That is what Michael Vey and the Electroclan is doing in Michael Vey Book 6: Fall of Hades by Richard Paul Evans. This book takes place on modern times and is in several places in the World. The Electroclan are going to carry out their deadliest mission yet, stealing the Elgen’s floating Fort Knox, the Joule which is in Tuvalu. In Fall of Hades Michael Vey and the Electroclan with the Resistance are the Protagonists, the antagonists are Admiral General Hatch and the Elgen Inc. Hatch has sentenced 2 of his electric teens, Tara and Torstyn to death and another electric teen, Quentin to a lifetime incarnation to a monkey cage. The Electroclan is also planning on freeing their former enemies Quentin, Tara, and Torstyn before hijacking the Joule because the Electroclan will need their powers to steal the floating gold vault. The turning point in this book is when Captain J.D. betrays the Electroclan and notify the Elgen and Admiral General Hatch that the Electroclan has come to free Quentin, Tara and Torstyn. Things then continuously get worse and worse for the Electroclan. Will Michael and the Electroclan successfully hijack the Joule or has Michael’s luck finally ran out? I would recommend this everyone who likes science fiction and an action packed book. Notice: Please read Michael Vey books 1,2,3,4,5, before reading Fall of Hades.

Michael Vey: Hunt for Jade Dragon is the fourth book in the Michael Vey series. The book stars a boy named Michael and his friends, a group called the Electroclan. Most of the Electroclan are electric; the kids have electric powers that vary from person to person. There are 13 electric children. However, they are hunted by the Elgen, the corporation who made them electric, and have some of the electric children on their side. The Elgen recently kidnapped a autistic genius named The Jade Dragon who has the formula for creating more electric children. The Electroclan will have to travel to Taiwan to rescue the Jade Dragon and stop the Elgen from creating more of them. This book is the best in the series so far, as it is humorous at the right times, while being sad when it needs to. I recommend this book to any middle schooler that read the first 3 books and enjoyed them. This book gets a 4 out of 5 from me as it is a good book.

The Taken starts by introducing Isla the fox and her family, describing their life. Then Isla is separated from her family. When she returns home she finds her family's den surrounded by strange foxes who are burning it down, and her family have disappeared. Isla sets off on a dangerous journey into the furless one's city, in order to track down her family. On the way she meets another fox who is searching for her twin brother. He says that he has been sent by the Elders. But can he be trusted? On her trip Isla learns about the true meaning of family, faces danger around every corner, and learns about the magic of Foxcraft. To be honest I had a tough time at the beginning of the book. At that point I think that there were too many adjectives that could have been taken out. It was hard to get into the story. But I continued reading, and once the action started to rise I could hardly put the the book down. Isla faced trial after trial of survival. There were many surprises, and I loved looking back and noticing parts of foreshadowing, or clues to an event that would happen later in book. I recommend this book to middle grade students and older, as there was a lot of action and fighting. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

This book is awesome! You don’t know what is happening for the first few chapters, and then everything starts making sense and you get immersed into the world of magic! The way kids learn magic is a cool idea, and over all Revenge of Magic is basically if Harry Potter was controlled by the government. I recommend this book!
