I think that the sequence of events in Hatchet is very believable and natural. I think the start really flows into the book and it continues through the book. If you're looking for a book with lots of suspension in it, this isn’t the book to read. It seems that once Brian learns something the suspension goes away for awhile. For example when he learns to hunt grouse he doesn't do anything for a while until something new comes to mind. The end of the book seems logical but you can foreshadow it and has a lot of questions not answered for me.
The main Character Brian is a city boy who enjoys survival books and movies. Through the book Brian becomes tougher because he takes some injuries such as when the plane crashes and his forehead gets bruised. I think that Brian also becomes much more independent and less selfish. Sometimes I think that Brian knows how to do things that he shouldn’t because it makes it not so inspiring.
I think in some parts the author creates real clean images in my head. In some parts I think the author puts lots of tension and made it very dramatic. If you're an adult thinking that this might be a great hard book, it’s good but one of the easiest books I’ve read. I rate this book 8 out of 10. Enjoy!
