Let me off at the top!

I finished  the book Let me off at the Top! by Ron Burgundy and it has been amazing. There really is no plot to the book because it is just him talking about things in life and his past adventures. Like once in the story he talks about the history of Mexico and how the dinosaurs go into Mexico and terrorize  all the Mexicans. There was another story about how he thought that his neighbor had stolen his leaf blower so he went out and defecated on his neighbors car.

He said "Your car, I will defecate on"

 He had sent out some
embarrassing photos of him. Only to figure out that the leaf blower was in the corner of his garage. The story just keeps on going on like that with all of these crazy adventures and memories.

Then the story just ends with him summing it all up with telling everyone how great this book was and to stay classy. I loved reading this book and I recommend that everyone should read this book. Its getting the insight memories and adventures of Ron Burgundy summed up in 300 pages and its hilarious. It has a lot of comedy in it to so if you like that you will love the book even more. All in all if you haven't read this book you need to go get it and read it. You will see the way Ron Burgundy sees things is the best possible way to view the world.

During the story he tells the neighbor who he assumes to have his leaf blower. "I'm telling watch out Ron Burgundy will unleash his wrath". Just the way he talks in that sentence can tell you what kind of person he is and what he may do to his neighbors car. Which we later find out that he defecates on it and that also tells you what he's like. This book is related to the movie Anchorman that stars Will Ferrell so you can automatically read in his voice during the story. At a certain point he tells the kids" I will save your playground. I will help your souls. I will find the bad man doing this."Which makes it even more funny because the voice he uses in the movie is so stereotypical of a politician. So you can read in in that voice in the story and not read anything and take it sarcastically or misread it and get confused. Its one of the funniest books and I recommend you read it.

This is one of the best books ever written.

Rivers of Zaddaa

As you have seen by my last blog post I have finished the book Let me off At the Top By Ron Burgundy. I have been reading the next book in the Pendragon series The Rivers Of Zadaa. Its been a great book I'm half way through it and even though its like the eighth book in the series. By then you can usually get used to the writers style and what he does throughout the book but this one still has many twists and turns. At one point there is this really good paragraph that changes the whole journey of the Travelers. " We ha e beaten you 6 times and there are only ten territories we have all got them at the right turning point" Bobby said Saint Dane starts to smile " What!" Bobby shot back  " Bobby, My dear boy didn't you ever stop to think that destroying a territory and all its inhabitants was the way it was meant to be"

This really changes all the book. Bobby in books 1-7 because throughout all of those Bobby has tried to stop every territory from falling to crippling despair. He has lost his uncle and many friends and Travelers throughout the journey and made many sacrifices to even fight this battle like giving up his life on second earth. Bobby had an amazing life on second earth to here's a quote to show. " My name Bobby Pendragon I am the captain and Point guard for Quarelly High School, I have a sister Jessica a Mom and a Dad and not to brag but i am pretty popular at school I just need to get Courtney Chetnwynde to like me and life will be set". Later on like 2 pages later Courtney comes to Bobby's house and kisses him so he had a perfect life. He sacrificed all that to fight and save these territories and Saint Dane just told him he may be doing all of this wrong that had a big impact on him but he tried not to show it. " I was about to just take a deep breath and drop but I couldn't shoe any weakness to Saint Dane".

Anyway I am halfway through the book and I cant wait for any other surprises that come on the way to finishing it.

Pendragon

I am in the middle of the book Pendragon during this week and it is an amazing book to read. So far in the book Bobby has gone and found these people and they are called the Jakills and he has teamed up with the leader his name is Siry. I pronounce it like the IPhone Siri but it is probably meant to be said in a different way. So as Bobby and Siry make plans to leave Rayne and go to see if there are other places outside of the territory and to prove the leaders wrong. As they are going out to find other lands this boat comes out of this fog. Its not your average wooden pirate ship its like, grade A, military styled ship. So it shows that there are other forms of life that are out there.

     Then out of nowhere this monstrous contraption comes out of the water and takes down the military ship before it could do any harm at Bobby and Sirys Ship. I think that the machine that helped Bobby as part of Rayne because they were not that far off the coast from Sirys home land. I predict that in the later chapters of the book that Bobby is going to find land outside of Rayne and that he will find other forms of life besides on Rayne. I also think that on that other piece of land he is going to find Saint  Dane and he is going to tell Bobby about the turning point and the bigger turning point that involves all the
territories. I guess we will just have to read and find out.
