-3 4 and 5

-3 I have just realized that i should probably put all of these posts together so they will be from now on, hope that didn't cause too much confusion. The setting of this book is in, as i have already stated San Fransisco. The story hasn't really said a season but at one point they were on a boat so i'm guessing its in the summer. Considering that this is a terrorist attack, and it is coming from a teenagers point of view; this is a very serious atmosphere. For chapters it was only talking about how awful it was in that "terrorist's jail". It was also saying how the DHS manipulated Marcus and how he was infuriated because of it. In my opinion that is really serious.
-4 The main character I have chosen is Marcus, because he is the protagonist. Marcus is very known to the technological world and uses it to his advantage. For example, he knows that the school has a gait recognition system so when he walks by he puts little rocks in his shoes to make him walk differently. Also he knows that the school tracks him through library books and can destroy the chip inside the book in different ways. Marcus is also as you can tell by my previous examples; a trouble maker. He skips school quite a bit and hacks into the schools website and stuff. But even though Marcus is a trouble maker. HE IS NOT A TERRORIST!
-5 I would rate this book on a scale to 1-10 an 8. This book has terrorists, teen rebellion, and "techno-geeks". You can't go wrong with that! I highly recommend it, but too bad i'm reading it!
