The Blood Guard
(16 reviews with an average rating of 4 out of 5)
Publisher: Scholastic
After the family home is burned down under mysterious circumstances, 13-year-old Ronan and his parents moved to another town.
But normal life is not resumed for long as Ronan discovers his father has been kidnapped and he suddenly finds himself in a speeding car driven by his mother, who is far from who she seems.
Ronan soon realises why his mum put him into so many self-defence and survival courses. Now he must put his abilities and skills to good use as he is pursued by sword-wielding bad guys and forced to join forces with some unlikely allies.
Think Anthony Horowitz meets Dan Brown and be prepared for a fast and spectacular ride in this first book in a series.

I thought this book was absolutely amazing and the story of it really intrigued me. The fact that a normal boy's life can change into something so intense as saving lives with outstanding fight scenes. This is the best book I have read out of all of the books I have read over the years. I would recommend this book to anyone that can read. Would read again.

It is a bit boring at the start but then gets interesting. It is very suitable for children who like mysteries.

The book blood guard is an amazing book because it has a funny and ruthless beginning. the weird part bit when Ronan truelove climbs through a toilet window. the reason why I think it is a action packed book is because there is danger at every turn, the bit I liked is when they took out the people. Carter Roy has used good language device.

It is decent. I expected more from the book. The adventure of the story was not adventurous and what happened in the story was repetitive.

I chose this book because I liked the striking image and I read the blurb which was interesting. From the part which I have read already I feel like the I want to read more. I would recommend this book for people who like mystery and adventure books.

I feel like this book was very eye catching and I love action and adventure and I feel this has a lot of this in the story I feel like it should be recommended to children in year7 and above.

This book is very good, I think this because each page would make me filled with action. I recommend this to adults or young adults because in some places this book is reality.

a really weird but somehow interesting book. During the action part of the book it got boring as it was fight after fight, you get the idea. the ending was pretty bleak after that you would think that ronan gets the girl but no no no he goeshome with his mum. boring ...
