October

This story was made up of characters that are beliveable and plot twist that get interesting. There are so many turns in this story.

In this story five super-skilled kids steal money from rich criminals and gives it to people in need. “One of the Urban Outlaws’ mottoes was, ‘Take only what others need.’ They took money from bad guys and gave it to people who needed it more. Seized the financial assets of arms deakers, thugs, gangsters, and gave it to hospitals, charities and carers. They didn’t think of it as stealing, more like ‘moving funds’. Spreading wealth round a little bit.” But when they run into trouble they when they try to steal from a crimanal named “Benito Del Sarto.” My thoughts are they are like Robin Hood and Merry men. These kind of stories are one that have people who want to help out poeple. The diffrent’s between Robin Hood and Urban Outlaws is: Robin Hood steal from anyone whos rich. He steal they money even if they not criminal, then he gives it to people in need. The Urban Outlaws only steal money from criminal’s then they do same as Robin Hood. If you ask do prefer Robin Hood or Urban Outlaws, I would say Urban Outlaws straight away. I think stealing from criminals is better than just stealing from anyone.

The characters that I found interesting is Charlie who is part of Urban Outlaws , Charlie Charlie’s hacker name is: “Pandora” and her real name is Charlotte Caine. She is 15 and skilled at making gadgets. She likes computer games and hates gross habits. She is scared of fire. I like Charlie because she is strong and is shown when she takes down a guard with a stun gun. “But he was too slow-there was a sudden crack as Charlie jabbed a stun gun into his side. The guard went rigid as electricity coursed through his body. Jack winced. That had to hurt. Charlie pulled the stun gun from the guard’s side and, for a moment, neither of them moved.” and “She was couple of months younger than he was, and the toughest girl he’d ever met, probably the toughest street kid in London.” Charile know how to handle Obi. “Charlie knew how to handle him, and Jack admired that about her. They were all like brothers and sisters. They’d been through so much together.” I can relate once I friend who could handle all emtion of me and I could the same to her. She was like a sister to me so I know the feeling.. I also found Jack interesting who is part of the Urban Outlaws. Jack’s hacker name is “Achilles but his real name is “Jack Feton.” He is 15 and is a skilled hacker. He likes physics and hates dupstep. He is scared of heights. The main point of why Jack was interesting to me was that he cares more about his team than himself. “He’d just closed his eyes agsin when he felt something tugging on the parachute cords. There was a trearing sound and the canopy above his head ripped open. Bleary-eyed, he squinted into the moonlight. ‘Charlie? What are doing?’ ‘I’m not leaving you.’ The glint of a blade flashed as she sliced through the ropes and canopy. Jack heard the police shouting and tried to shove Charlie off him. ‘Go. Get out of here.’ ‘Shut up,’ Charlie snapped. More slicing, and she released his legs. Jack shrigged out of the harness and Charlie pulled him to his feet.” I do care more for other people safty than my own and I still kind of do to this day. I know that feeling of telling someone to go and safe themself before you go yourself.

The message is that you should inclued everyone when your in team and everyone should have something to do. At start Jack didn’t include Wern (one of the the other girl in Urban Outlaws) in most of the missions. Near the end he learns how fauble Wern is to the team. “Jack thought if htere wa ever a definition of what an Urban Outlaw was, then Wern was it. He leant into her er and said, ‘I promise I’ll use you in every mission from now on.’ He stood straight and Wern smiled. Jack looked between them all. ‘Ready, team?’ Jack has learned that everyone in the team add some vaule. It like a postion in sport. In one sport team one or two people are good at a certain poostion. But my personal exprince comes from a team buliding activity. I went on an trip oversea’s to some place that was unknown to us at time. I can;t quite remeber where were. But I remeber the activitys. There so many people on this trip which noneofus had ever met before. But as soon as we were in a team challage we work well toeghter.

The challeges that the Urban Outlaws face are escaping Benito Del Sarto who is skilled crimnal. He also has three agent working for him. Their name’s: Agent Monday, Agent Cloud, Agent Conner. They pretenting to be goverment agent’s but they just want to take down the Urban Outaws. I know how it feels to run away from someone. I once played a game called colours where you have to catch another colour. I was on one team and as I ran through a prickle bush someone from a team that were catching us jumped from one side of the opening. I ran oppsite direction. I ran and got away. I know how it feels to take down someone and getting taken down. Also I got into acting for a few years of my life so I know about pretending to be charecter who is so diffrent from you. I know the feeling of acting and learn how a charecter would move and talk.

.The title Urban Outlaws was one title that could fit it but another title is “Benito Del Sarto” because is the main villian in the book. Both title fit the book, nethier is more or less suited than the other. I as though Peter had to hard time coming up with name for these kids. I think both title could work with it but both would grab my attention.

I would recommend this book to year 12 student because of the action and the amazing friendship between these kids. I think it is important for year 12 student to lern the power of friendship.

Lastly I think this book was one that you read over and over again., I never got bored. Over all this book was my style.
