Stoneheart
Hi! Patrick is back and talking about himself in the third person. He finished Bluestar's Prophecy a few days ago and he really liked it even though it was sad. He would give it a rating of 7.5 out of ten because it was a good book but not the best book ever. But now he has finished another book called Stoneheart about a boy named George who is dropped into an alternate London where statues and carvings are real when he breaks the head off of a stone dragon in anger. A taint, or a statue of a non-human creature, chases him and the only thing that saves him is a statue of a soldier form World War two, called the Gunner( a spit, or human statue), shoots it into powder. The Gunner continues to help George throughout the book. Patrick is done with the book but he won't reveal what happens. He likes the book a lot and would recommend it to anyone who likes young adult fantasy. He enjoys it because the main character doesn't really know or accept what is going on until the end and has to figure it out almost on his own. Patrick also likes how Eddie(who is, in fact, a girl) has to figure out her own power of seeing the past through stone or metal, called glinting, with only a cryptic riddle from a sphinx. Patrick is going to start reading the sequel to Stoneheart, called Ironhand soon, so look for that on his blog. Bye for now!

I have read that book too and I thought it was a great book full of adventure. My favorite character is the Gunner.
