"Revenge of the Shadow King" by Derek Benz and J.S. Lewis



Hello, “The Revenge of the Shadow king” is a really good book. It has four main characters in it, Max, Natalia, Harley, and Ernie. Max is extremely rich and his parents separated, Natalia is the best detective in school. Harley, well just like the Harley Motorcycle, is tuff and big, and Ernie is the complete opposite he is weak scrawny and he loves chocolate. These four friends make up the Grey Griffins. Max, when he was over his grandma’s house found a book and in the book was all the monsters a game round table, which the Grey Griffins play often. Well, Max accidently released some of the monsters and witches in the real world. Max also runs into a monster called the Slayer Goblin, which every time he runs into it, it tries to kill him. All these monsters are trying to release the Shadow King into the world so that he can destroy it. Now, you might be saying, well why is the Shadow King getting revenge? Well, that is because during the Medieval Times, all the monsters were loose and killing. Well King Arthur, trapped the shadow king and the creatures in another world when they went into a long bloody war.
The theme of my book is I think true friends will stick together through thick or thin. For, when Max told his friends that he released monsters into the world, they stuck with him. Even when Max broke a secret pact not to open up the book again, they stuck through. Which, it is a good theme, but it is something I dislike in the book. I find that they should have had one person just blow up and leave the group saying “no, this is your mess so you need to clean it up, not me!” That friend then should have been convinced to join the bad side and fight against his friends and when it came point for him to kill his friends he could not do it so he killed the Shadow King instead. Sadly that did not happen.
Well this is my video blog and if you could not understand me the words that I am speaking is below the video. Thank you for watching and hope you enjoyed it. Hopefully I convinced you that this book is AWESOME and you would like to read it.
