The Alchemyst

The Alchemyst

The main characters are called Josh and Sophie Newman.They are normal twins untill they accedenly watch two magicans fight.

After that they want to know  more about this magic.

I think it’s really interesting how Josh and Sophie find out more and more about real magic.

If you love fantasy stories like I do you defenitly have to read this book because its nearly only about magic and its also very reveting to read and you really don’t  know what is happening next.

The prophecy of the gems

The Prophecy of the gems
It is a GREAT book about friendship. It’s about three girls who are the owners of three magical gems. According to these gems, they have to go to a place called Fairytale to fulfill their prophecy. When the girls meet the first time, they don’t know each other – except for the fact that they are supposed to be enemies.
The fantastic adventurous novel is definitely a MUST-READ!!!

Of course Edward her true love wants to protect her from all these dangerous Vampires but if you want to know if he really manages it alone without any help to protect Bella, you have to read this book!

Eragon

Unfortunately the video has disappeard because PRESENT.ME stopped their service.

Christopher Paolini has written one of the best books I’ve ever read, Eragon. If you like fantasy stories I would really recommend it to you but also if you don’t like fantasy stories try it out and maybe you will experience the same thing as me. I don’t like fantasy stories either but now I know that there are good ones too.

The world, in which the story is taking place is called Alagaësia and it’s under Galbatorix’ control. He is a fallen dragon rider. A long time ago dragon riders used to be good and the keepers of peace, but when Galbatorix’ dragon died he turned mad and evil. He killed all the dragon riders.

The actual story starts with Eragon finding a strange blue stone in the Spine, a mountainous region near his home. Eragon is a poor, 15 year old orphan, who lives with his uncle and his cousin. After a while Eragon realizes that the stone isn’t a stone but a dragon egg. He keeps it secret and raises his dragon away from everyone’s eye. Soon Eragon and his dragon Saphira have to flee, because there are two strange guys called th Ra’zac in town. They are working for Galbatorix and are looking for Eragon and the blue stone. While Eragon is away, they kill his uncle by burning down his house. Eragon travels along with Saphira and Brom, the old story teller in town to take revenge.

Now a kind of new life starts for Eragon. A life full of action, danger and magic…

New Moon

If you like exciting, fantasy, love stories and thick books you have to read NEW MOON!

 

New Moon is the second volume of the series Twilight. In this book the love story of Bella and Edward goes on. If you don’t know the first volume at all then you can watch our video about Twilight!

As you already know Edward is a Vampire. Bella has no trouble with that extraordinary situation but maybe Edward? In the beginning Bella and Edward are in their best time. They spend a lot of time with each other and are the happiest people on earth. But then Bella celebrates her birthday at the Cullen’s and there she has a little accident and a little drop of blood drops out of her finger when the paper sliced her finger. Normally the Cullens are “vegetarians” and they drink only the blood of animals but one of them loses his control and the rest of the family have to save Bella from the ravenous, hungry vampire and at this point the trouble starts. Edward thinks it’s too dangerous for Bella to be with Vampires all the time so he breaks up with Bella.

For Bella this is the end but thank God Bella can count on her old best friend Jacob. He leads Bella through the darkest time of her life. Edward is gone “as if he never existed” this is too much for Bella and she tries to do reckless and stupid things like jumping off a cliff. Jacob tries to bring her back to ordinary but then he seems to have a much bigger problem. If you want to know what happens to Jacob and if Edward will come back you have to read NEW MOON!

There are two more volumes of this series they are called Eclipse and Braking Dawn. The author of this awesome book is called Stephenie Meyer.
