Lee Raven Boy Thief - fourth and last post

Summary of the 100 last pages in - Lee Raven Boy Thief. Last post.

Lee doesn’t live down the manhole anymore. He lives at an old lady called Mrs Larch’s house, Lee think this is kind of weird because he is like hired by this lady. She knows he got the book and what it’s capable to do. What she is trying to do is getting all of the stories written down by Lee. He doesn’t realize what she is trying to do. He is just happy about getting paid just for writing down some stories. But after a while he realizes she just want them to publish them by herself.
Lee escapes from her, with the book.

After the escape Lee meets up his friend Janaki. Janaki is now being suspected as the murderer of Mr Salomon and also as the thief of the book. But the thing is what really happened was that Lee has hidden the book. Far, far away. Lee and Janaki went to the place where Lee has hidden the book. It was under the water in a lake. This place has been a hiding place for Lee’s family for a long time.
When Janaki and Lee was at the hiding place the heard a speedboat approaching. From the boat two people stepped off. One man and one woman, the man was hurt and had blood in his face. Lee and Janaki were able to defend themselves because they had weapons. A moment later a helicopter and a dragon flew down from the sky. Both of them looked dangerous and they aimed their weapons against Lee and Janaki. They won this fight against these creatures and they managed to flee away.

After the fight the book transformed into a man. A big muscular man with brown hair. He smelled like honey and orange. Just like the book. The book has always been a man, but he has never shown himself.

Lee Raven who stole the book in the beginning was actually a part of The book of Nebo in the end of the book . The book that I’ve read starts and ends with the exact same thing.
My thoughts about the book. I think the book has been really weird, you don’t get it at all what’s really happening. Every chapter is from one person’s point of view and that’s getting the story very hard to understand. The descriptions in the book are quite difficult to understand, they are very detailed and long. It’s like you don’t get the story when you are reading them. I’m a bit disappointed of the book, I thought it was going to be more action but instead it was all about the book.

I DON’T RECOMMEND THE BOOK AT ALL. WEIRD BOOK.

Lee Raven Boy Thief - third post

Summary of the pages 100- 160.

Lee is still living undergorund down a monhole. It's just him and the book, they are becoming like friends. They tell eachother their own stories about life and such, for axample where they come from and their childhood.
Quite many of these pages is from the book's point of view. His story about where he comes from. The book was the most famous book in the library of Alexandria and the owner was so enthusiastic about it. The name of the owner was Zenodotus, he was a man who loved all kind of literature, he collected all of the books in the world and took them to Alexandria. It didn't take a long time until he realized this book was special.

"Zenodotus soon discovered my nature and gave me directly to his son Ptolemy, who kept me for his personal pleasure, reading my stories every with his father and telling nobody of my magic properties- not even Demetrius of Phalerum, whose idea the library had been in the first place". The book said in a chapter from it's point of view.

The book has been traveling for a thousands of years from person to person, and this is the first time it can speak for real with a person who cares.


Lee is a special person for the book. It's not the same thing with Lee as the other who the book has read for, he is definitely the one who has cared the most about the stories.

Lee is a little bit scared, because he knows someone is looking for him, and sooner or later they will find him. The only reason he's not more afraid is because of the book. Is makes him feel safe in some kind of way.

So far I'm a ittle bit dissappointed about the book. I thought it would be more action and haunting by the murderer. Instead it's kind of booring just reading about the book and Lee, it would be more fun to read if it was more action and happenings. But I think it will happen something now because in the end when I read Lee woke up without he book.

The book is quite good, interesting stories and such. But sometimes it's kind of booring, it doesn't happen that much. Now I have like 100 pages left and I'm definitely hoping that it's going to be more action in the end.

Lee Raven Boy Thief - second post

Summary of the pages 50-90.

When Lee took the Book of Nebo many people got afraid. That was a book that's not going to be stolen. It was an object every man wanted to posses and everyone wanted it to be safe.

Now, when Lee has to hide himself from the murderer he lives underground at Stratford Place in a old and dirty room. The only thing Lee does is to listen to the book. He listens of all the stories, both good or bad. He is completely fascinated by it's content and he can't stop listen.

Lee is in that old and dirty room to wait for his little brother Finn. Finn is the only one who knows that Lee was the one who took the book.

The chapters I have read has been from three different perspectives. Lee's, Mr Magg's and the Book's.

Mr Magg is the man who had the responibility of the book when it were stolen. He is furious, not only because of the thief, his friend Mr Saloman was murdered that night when the book was stolen.

Now everything he wants is to take back the book.

In Lee's perspective you only hear his thoughts about the book and the situation. He's kind of scared but it doesn't sound like he thinks about that a lot. He is ignoring his fear.

Beacuse Lee doesn't have the skill to read this book opens a new world for him. He has never before read a story by his own.

The chapter with the book's perspective is kind of wierd, bacause you don't really get it when the word comes from a book. The book is thinking about the Lee. In the beginning the book didn't want to tell him stories but after a while he doesn't care. He tells the stories with such an empathy you can't tell.

The book tells his own story, how old he is and where he comes from.

The book is getting better and better but still some parts is hard to understand. Like when the book started to talk you didn't get that is was from it. But besides from that I think the book is quite good and I believe it's going to be really exciting. The book isn't at all obvious, you don't know what's going to happen.
