The+Angel’s+Command

The book I read was The Angel’s Command. It is by Brian Jacques (Jakes), author of the Redwall series. I enjoyed this book because it has action, adventure, drama, and suspense. Additionally, I liked that it was written in a mix of first person and third person point of view. Lastly, Ned (Black Labrador) can mentally communicate with his master, Ben. In fact, an angel is guiding them. That is what made it stand out to me. Next is the plot of the whole story. The story takes place on a boat of a Frenchman named Raphael Thuron. Also setting is on the border of Spain and France. Ben and Ned are cursed to walk the Earth forever, to help anybody in need. What I really liked was that Ben and Ned can mentally communicate with each other. I think Ben is a lot like me in many ways. For instance, he can fluently speak French, German, and Spanish just like me. This story reminds me of when I was about ten and my grandfather let me go sailing with him. In story there are five main characters, but they appear in different sections of the book. First of all, there is Ben and Ned; they are the ones the angel is guiding. There is also Karay, Dominic, and Raphael Thuron. I really appreciate Raphael because he has a smile on his face, even if there is an atrocious conundrum going on. Raphael is a happy fellow and isn’t afraid to sacrifice himself for a true friend like me. Him and I are also different, too, for example he is a pirate and a wanted man and I am a magician and an unwanted kid. That is a general overview of the plot.

Last but certainly not least, the reasons why you should read this book. To start off, it has so much detail in a single paragraph than most books have on one page. Two, it has a little bit of each genre, drama, violence, suspense, you name it. Three, you can never put down the book, it is that good. Finally, if you like this book you’ll like all his other books, like the Castaways of the Flying Dutchman. Hence, that is why you should read this book.
