Michael Vey: Battle of the Ampere - Richard Paul Evans

   
     The book that I will be discussing is, Michael Vey: Battle of the Ampere by Richard Paul Evans. This is the third book in the whole Michael Vey series. The genre of this book is, Science Fiction since the main character, Michael Vey possesses special electric powers that give the ability to harness and control electricity whenever he wants to, just with his hands. The basic summary of this book is that in the very beginning where everything starts off, our main character, Michael Vey is found in the jungle waking from a nap feeling confused and worried. (This situation was explained in the previous book). He soon starts to wonder what happened and how he got here. He also worries about the state of his friends/team, because they somehow got separated from previously trying to stop the Elgen, an organization that wants control over the entire world. In the next part of the story, Michael seems to be calming down and recovering from this situation, and he soon learns that a special jungle tribe found him and brought him here. They healed him from the previous injuries he experienced and were taking care of him. After a while of hanging out with the tribe, he soon finds that another girl that has special powers like him resides in this jungle tribe too. Michael makes friends with her, and they learn about each other. Soon the Elgen somehow discover Michael's location, and he and the girl run away to avoid them. They try to find Michael's team so that they all could work together to stop the Elgen. Eventually, after a long time, Michael finds his team, and they all take some time to think of a plan to take down the Elgen. In the end, they end up sinking the Elgen's ship, the Ampere, and they destroy a lot of work from the Elgen's evil plans. So, in the end, they win and are ready for the next problem that comes across them.
      My overall opinion about this specific book, is that it has good characters that interact and react like normal people do, giving us the chance to connect with them as the readers. For example, in the book, the author has the has the characters express emotions and thoughts through language, that we might fo everyday. Such as, the sense of precaution, the sense of laziness, etc. The overall plot and storyline is interesting, because it is a unique plot that you probably never have imagined. for instance, the whole storyline revolves around these teenagers with special powers that try to stop an evil company together by using their powers and teamwork. The way the author elaborates and runs off the plot is what makes the whole book interesting and recommendation fun read as well. My final reason of why this book is my favorite, is because it has a good amount of pages and word amount on each page making it a just right book. For instance, the author generally uses up the whole page of a book, and uses it in a normal font size. This means that we would be reading a very good amount of text and action as well. The overall book pages is roughly around 352 pages, which is a decent size, because it expands the story more thoroughly, and it is a good read to keep you motivated to read books. My recommendation of this book, is to 7th grade students that enjoy the genre of science fiction and like action/suspenseful situations as well. This book is a very enjoyable read that many people would love to read
