Review of In the End
When twelve teenage boys realise they are stuck in a garage swallowed by a sinkhole, their quest to find an escape lands them in old mining tunnels. What started as an adventure becomes harder as the days pass and death starts to claim the lives of these teenagers one after another. As they explore further into these tunnels, many discoveries are made, and questions arise, such as: who made these tunnels; would the boys be able to make it out of these dark tunnels; will they be able to reunite with their parents; and what dangers await them on this journey? To find out, read "In the End" by Ken Saik.
This fictional book is an intriguing narrative that portrays many themes in life, such as love, family, friendship, faith, danger, survival, sorrow, and>togetherness. The book focuses on the lives of twelve teenagers as they face different dangers on their quest to find their way home. The level of suspense within the book kept me in anticipation of what the next event could be. The author's creative imagination, writing style, story setting, and choice of words made for a captivating and interesting read.
What I liked most about the book were the fast-paced narration and the character development. Ken must be commended for the work put into the development of the characters. The way Ken brought out the emotions, interactions, skills, and traits of each teenager was mesmerising and also made the characters seem relatable. Calvin's courage and selflessness to help his friends, Perry's faith in God, and Sampson's leadership skills were what I admired about these characters.
Furthermore, I found nothing to dislike about this book. I was completely thrilled with the book because of its compelling and thrilling plot. Considering all the positive aspects I found in this book, I rate In the End five out of five stars. I did not find any errors in the book, and I believe it was exceptionally well edited. The language used by the author was also simple and easy to understand.
I would recommend this book to readers who love adventurous thrillers and novels filled with suspense. Readers who enjoy reading stories with a real-life feel to them would also love this book. Even though the book illustrates the Christian faith and prayers, I believe it is suitable for people of all religions. Lovers of fiction novels, mostly young adults, would also have a great time reading this book.
