Rating: 5/10
Recommended Age: 8-11
This book is based on a series I haven't read any of so at first it Seemed abit confusing but I was pleased to find That it gives you a basic starting point into the series so your not completely lost.
The story follows Jack a Young lad in Japan training to be a samurai. He is related to some great swordmaster and finds himself targeted by a ninja assassin called Dragon eye who is trying to find his dead fathers Rutter hidden where only jack knows. As he finishes the walk of the way of fire he and his fellow trainees find themselves surrounded by 3 ninjas (little do they know they are the instructors finishing their training). Jack believes dragon eye has found him and a fight ensues. Jack and his friends go into the forest and suddenly there is the real dragon eye. They manage to beat him but one of them gets poisoned so the Young samurai have to walk to the top of a active volcano and find a cactus that grows there who will make it? who will survive? and how will they cope when the volcano erupts and they find themselves facing a all to dangerous new walk of fire?
Although this book is aimed i think towards younger people i have to say it wasn't that bad a read for an onlder person. it was a little lacking in details and volume but then that's what you expect in a 2-in-1 world book day book. altohugh I probably wouldn't get the rest of the series I can see why they'd be good for a younger audince of say 9-10 years old.
I hope you found this review helpful,
