Book Review

The book I read is called The Eaters of the Dead By Michael Crichton. It about is a Middle Eastern prince that gets banished form his kingdom because he slept with someone he was not supposed to. So he and a translator go out into the desert search for a new home. On their journey they run into a bunch of Middle Eastern bandits. So they run form them, but just then they find a bunch of Northman in a middle of a funeral. To be safe from the bandits they join the Northman in the middle of the funeral. After the funeral they sit down for dinner. During the dinner an old lady comes out called the witch said that there is a trouble in the north and thirteen warriors have to go up and fight the evil, so twelve people volunteer. Then she said that the thirteen warriors can’t be a Northman, so that mean it the Middle Eastern prince. Then they go to this village in the north, on the way the prince learns how to speak their language. When they get to the village they find the town is being killed by an old evil, and they need the thirteen warriors help to get rid of it. At the end they kill all the evil but the leader has to die.
Why I chose this book is because Michael Crichton is my favorite author. His work is very good. Then the types of books he wrights I like a lot. Then the book is about Scandinavian people and I find that topic very interesting. That is why I chose this book, and I suggested this book to you. Another one of his book that is good is Prey, Timeline, and The lost world. His books are action books that take place in the further or the past. His books can very violent or they can be very serious government types of books. This book is good so far but my favorite one of his is Prey.
