Unbroken Spine: Summary

Improved Essays
This book is a treasure, it pushes you to think about certain things that we would think of in our twenty-first century lives. I would encourage everyone that has a desire for answers to the over looked questions. It gives an answer that is less on the magic side and give you an insight to the great minds of the future and past. The characters of the book are unique and assemble almost a magical team. The plot of the story is simple, however, to truly under the characters yearns and reasoning behind their actions you have to picture yourself in their place. I know my audience, my teachers, have to read the paragraph where the ending is described to complete my summary. Furthermore, I urge you to read the book for your self due to the fact …show more content…

He gathers all the characters together to show them the answer the Unbound Spine’s greatest problem. The answer was within the coder’s stamps, the tiny indents on the stamps turn the code into latin and then Clay translated the messages into english. The answer to immortality that the cult was looking for was to live on through your work, Griffo Gerritszoon lived on through his puzzle that the cult had been trying to solve for years.

    The work of fiction that has had the most effect on my life and the way I see the world is C.S. Lewis’s Screwtape Letters. The Screwtape Letters was my first experience with the work of C.S. Lewis besides his series The Chronicles of Narnia. As The Chronicle of Narnia only has underlying tones of Christian theology, it is easy to see passed it and just see a light-hearted action-adventure novel. But in The Screwtape Letters it is much harder to dismiss it is as just an adventure story. The novel is about two demons brainstorming the demise of their patients.…

    The book “Jinx” by Sage Blackwood, was a very thrilling story with some humorous moments, some twisted and morbid moments, but definitely a lot of action and adventure. Particularly I found it especially intriguing reading about how Jinx had to adapt to his new way of living outside of the clearing and into the Urwald with Simon the Wizard. In the Urwald Jinx was too afraid to step off path because he did not want to get swept away by the witches or werewolves. However, toward the end of the book he showed much courage when him and two other kids Reven and Elfwyn had the gut to rescue Simon and the other people’s lives held captive by the Bonemaster. One event in particular I found morbid was when Jinx meets Dame Glammer who is a witch and she wants to turn Jinx into butter.…
