The Lost King

Peter King is an weird and unsociable teenager with many odd hobbies. He was forced to go on a school wilderness camp in the Wanoom Peninsula with a 14km walk to the camp site at Whalers Cove.As soon as they get to the camp site Peter is put in a group with Emily, a girl he has never talked to, Bethany the girlie girl in the camp and Sully the school bully. The first task they had to do was a navigation exercise in a dense forest. They were given a sheet of instructions, a map, a GPS and a compass.They were told that they had to find four markers in the forest. As soon as they start the  exercise Sully takes charge of the group and takes the lead. They start taking short cuts and as soon as they know it they are lost. Now all they have is a map, a compass, a dying GPS, a useless sheet of instructions and each other.  

My favourite character is Peter King because at the beginning of the story he wasn’t liked and didn’t have many friends. He developed and became more manly and was starting to have friends near the end of the story. At the end of the story he had become friends with all of his team mates and had become a responsible and brave person.

I like this book because it has lots of adventure and it has a thrilling plot to it.I also I like it because  of the way  main characters develop.

One thing I don’t like about the story is that it is predictable because  I can predict what's going to happen next.

I would recommend this book because it has an awesome plot and is thrilling. I think the appropriate age group is 11yrs and up and I have learnt that teamwork is easier than doing it alone.
