calling all terminator fans

Book: T2 Infiltrator
Author: S.M. Stirling
Published by: EOS

Review: This book starts of a trilogy about Sarah and John Conner and there fight against killer robots from the future ( Terminator's). The story ties in with the well known James Cameron films " The Terminator" and "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" which star Arnold Schwarzenegger , Michael Biehn and Linda Hamilton. The first movie is about a terminator , which is sent back in time to kill Sarah Conner and a man named Kyle Reese, sent back to protect Sarah Conner. This book starts were "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" ends having destroyed Cyberdyne, then skips 6 years into the future were Sarah and John are living in Paraguay under secret identities. Sarah owns a truck company called Kreiger trucks. But one day Sarah finely meets her next door neighbour, Dieter von Rossbach. who looks exactly like a terminator! After a while Sarah and Dieter form a friendship. But Sarah suspects he is out to get her. Dieter finds out who she is and decides to help her, after Dieter had a confrontation with a terminator, destroy Cyberdyne, as they have come back and Skynet have sent a terminator to kill Sarah and John . This is a really great book that you can't put down; two books follow, T2 Rising storm and T2 future war , which I have yet to read.

My rating: 5 out of  5
Age Recommendation: 15 years and older
Suggestion: Watch "The Terminator" and "Terminator 2: Judgement Day" (Directors cut ) before reading this, if you have not seen them.    
    

  

Bristle face

Book: Bristle Face
Author: Zachary Ball (Kelly Ray Masters)
Published by: Scholastic
Review: This story is about a boy named Jace who runs away from his abusive uncle and finds a dog (which he names Bristle Face), that is really ugly looking,but loyal dog. Jace ends up in a small town and stops at shop called Swanks Store, where he meets a nice,but lazy man by the name of Lute. Lute lets Jase and Bristle Face stay at his place. Everybody who sees Bristle Face says the same thing," He looks more like a porcupine then a dog. But Bristle Face proves himself when danger finds Jace. This is a good book with a really emotional ending.
My Rating: 3.5 out of 5
