Book Reviews of The River (A Yearling Book)
Book Review: "Brian does it again"
Summary: 5 Stars
In this sequel to Gary Paulsen's The Hatchet Brian finds himself faced with a new challenge. Instead of he himself surviving, he must get someone else to safety. Derek Holtzer asks Brian to do it again, to survive so that he can teach others to do it, but then he is struck by lightning, disabling him and forcing Brian to get him to safety before it's top late. The only option is the river that leads out to safety, as he is yet faced with another challenge.I thought that this book was an easy read, and it was fantastically crafted, just like any other Paulsen work. He brings fourth a style which is felt because of his experiences in the wilderness, and makes you go through all of the ups and downs that the character experiences. It was definitely a thrill ride from start to finish, with a good strong plot and lots of interesting details of survival. Overall I'd say that this book is a worthy sequel to Hatchet and a must for any Paulsen fan.
