Title: Fighting Phantoms
Author: M. Zachary Sherman
Genre: Action
Fighting Phantoms is about two marines who get shot out of the sky and are pushed to their limits. The book describes what can happen in war like death, pain and anger. The main characters in this book are “candy man” aka Donavan and “Blam” aka Bobby. The book is set in Vietnam.
The best thing about this book is all the weapons and fighter plans and action. I liked this because it’s something kids my age enjoy.
One part of the book I’d improve is the end when they shoot all the soldiers. I’d improve this because I would of rather more action and death.
Overall, I thought this book was awesome and short and easy to read. I’d recommend it to 10-14 year olds.
I’d rate this book 7 ½ /10.

Title: The Fall Of Reach
Author: William C. Dietz
Genre: Action
The Fall Of Reach is about a group of super soldiers known as SPARTANS who try to stop the aliens known as the COVENANT and save Reach. The book describes on how John-117 and his team of Spartans use teamwork to destroy the covenant and find out what their plans are. The main characters of the book are John-177 (Spartan leader), Kelly (Spartan and John’s best friend), Linda (Spartan and John’s friend), Fred (Spartan and John’s friend), Jacob keys (captain in the UNSC) and Katherine Halsey (doctor and scientist).The book is set on Reach and other planets.
The best thing about this book is the teamwork and skill the Spartans use to defeat the covenant. I liked this because some of the ways they use to fight are really cool and the action keeps you wanting to read more.
One part of the book that I’d improve is more Spartans survive. I’d change this because the Spartans are really strong so it sucks that most of them don’t survive.
Overall, I thought this book was awesome and cool. I’d recommend it to anyone who likes action.
I’d rate this book 8/10
