The book that I read for this letter essay was James Patterson’s The Dangerous Days of Daniel X. This was the first of the six book Daniel X series that James Patterson wrote. The book talks about Daniel, a young 15 year old alien hunter from the planet Alpar Nok. Daniel travels the world in search of the sixth most dangerous alien outlaw in the galaxy, Ergent Seth. During the chase, Daniel has to overcome being shot, tricked, and escaping capture from the outlaw. But during one encounter with Ergent Seth, Daniel is shot in the stomach and is about to die. It wouldn’t be easy, but Daniel will overcome it. I read Daniel X and I enjoyed the book for it’s action and mystery. There was a lot of plot twists in the book which I liked too.

Then my head hit the ceiling of something spongy, and I slid through the tissue and membrane with a wet pop” (228). Here, Daniel was finally able to find a way to kill Seth. Before this quote, Daniel transformed into a tick and climbed into Seth’s head. Then, Daniel transformed into an elephant and popped Seth’s head. Daniel w And after trading blows back and forth, Daniel came out on top, and was able to eliminate Ergent Seth.
The book is told from Daniel’s point of view, or first person. During and after many of the quotes, I was able to notice Daniel was saying I, my, and me. For example on page 196 he says “I felt extremely tired. I glanced at the broken pictures that had fallen off the wall. My eyelids
