HEADMASTER

I THINK THIS BOOK IS FOR
CHILDREN AGED 10 AND

UP BECAUSE SOME THINGS
IN THE BOOK MIGHT BE QUITE
DIFFICULT TO UNDERSTAND. I
WOULD RECOMMEND THIS BOOK TO
ANYONE WHO LIKED ALEX RIDER
OR IF YOU LIKE BRIAN COX. ALSO,
TO ANYONE WHO IS INTERESTED

IN CHEMISTRY.

REVIEW OF BOOKS 3

THE DESCRIPTION AND
THE STORY ARE WELL
WRITTEN AND THERE ARE
PARTS THAT MIGHT MAKE YOU
SAD AND PARTS THAT MIGHT MAKE
YOU LAUGH. THE TWISTS IN STORY
REALLY GRAB YOU AND PULL YOU
IN, AND AS A READER YOU LEARN
SO MUCH FROM MELODY’S

EXPERIENCES.

Sam Linger

IN CONCLUSION, I
WOULD RECOMMEND

THIS BOOK TO
TEENAGERS WHO ARE
INTERESTED IN CLEVER

PLOTS AND LOTS OF
ACTION.

IT IS ONE OF THE
FIRST AND BEST
EXAMPLES OF SCIENCE
FICTION AND IN MY OPINION
IS JUST AS RELEVANT TODAY
AS IT WAS WHEN IT WAS FIRST
PUBLISHED, PARTICULARLY
BECAUSE WE ARE BEING
INVADED BY COVID 19. I
HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT.

William Travis

IN CONCLUSION I
WOULD RECOMMEND
THIS BOOK TO ANYONE
WHO IS INTERESTED IN
THE WAR AND IF THEY
READ THIS BOOK THEY
SHOULD PASS ON THE

MESSAGE.

REVIEW OF BOOKS 5

OVERALL, I WOULD
HIGHLY RECOMMEND
THIS BOOK TO ANY SCI-
FI LOVER AS H.G. WELLS
IS KNOWN AS THE ‘FATHER
OF SCIENCE FICTION’ BUT IT
ALSO HAS SOME INCREDIBLY
DETAILED PASSAGES AND HE HAS
MANAGED TO BUILD A LOT OF
SUSPENSE THROUGHOUT THE

NOVEL.

Review by Peter Giles Nedeljkovic

I WOULD GIVE
THIS BOOK A 7/10
BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH
THE PLOT IS GREAT, IT IS
A LITTLE TOO VIOLENT AND
THE OLD ENGLISH IS VERY
HARD TO READ. WELLS USES
VERY COMPLICATED WORDS
WHICH I HAVE TO LOOK UP

REGULARLY.

Rufus Ogilvie

IN CONCLUSION, I ENJOYED
THIS BOOK AND WOULD

RECOMMEND IT TO ALL OF
THOSE THAT WANT TO GET INTO
MORE CHALLENGING BOOKS. THIS

NOVEL IS PERFECT FOR BOTH
CHILD AND ADULT AND I WANT
TO READ MORE OF H.G. WELLS’

BOOKS IN THE FUTURE.
