The Ring of Five

Hello,is everybody having a nice February.Anyway last week I read a book called The Ring of FIve,it is written by Eion McNamee and it was published in 2010.When I first bought the book I actually intended to give it to my little brother's birthday but then I found out he didn't want a book so I just decided to buy something else and make this book mind(I could still have given this book to him even if he doesn't want to but if I do give him I don't think he will read it and I don't see the point of wasting)

The good
.Nicely illustrated cover
.I Loved the story,The story is full of excitement and twist.

The bad
.I felt the story lacks character development

Quik summary
Danny is a boy who has two different colour for his eyes and his ear is a little bit pointy so everybody in his school make fun of him.His mother decided to send him to another school(a boarding school)When he arrives at the boarding he finds himself not in a normal school but in a school for spy who protects the upper world(our world)there he meets Les a messenger(a person with wings)who saves him from.......................That's it I guess.

The conclusion
Boy who goes to a place to realize his true potential type of story isn't that original if you know what I mean(Harry Potter,The Knightley Academy,The Imagination,etc)but each has their own up and down.It has agreat story that I really enjoyed the theme is eho to trust and who will betray so it always keep me gussing but to me The characters lacks development to me it happened to fast.Harry and his friends,Henry and his friends,Jack and his friends. Compared to those three Danny's friendship with his friend feels a bit weak but perhaps that's what being a spy all about.

Rating:8 out of 10
