The Fire Thief Fights Back

The Fire Thief Fights Back by Terry Deary is the awesome and exciting final chapter to the immensely popular Fire Thief trilogy. Closer and closer to his objective of finding a human hero, Prometheus, the infamous Fire Thief, meets Sam Wonder and his mother, Jenny Wonder, salespersons of Jenny Wonder’s Magical medicine (which is actually useless rainwater) and Alice, a slave girl. As the monsters of ancient Greece rally up against earth, with the Avenger leading them, Theus must gather his 3 human heroes and along with Zeus, fight of the monstrous threat.

My favorite part of the book was when Zeus and Sam fight off the seven monsters guarding the Avenger. Funny footnotes and amazing description made this part extremely enjoyable for me.

This final chapter to the fire thief trilogy is funny and slightly sad, but it is a must read for anyone who loves a good adventure.

So you've reached the end of the trilogy. Are you sad that it's finished, or eager to begin a new reading adventure.

It's nice to see your reading a genre other than non fiction. This spread brings you along as an overall student, Madhav. Nice.
