TORRENT

I have just read a book called 'Torrent'.  The book was written by Bernard Ashley. The book had an adventure and action story. The story was set up in the mountains.

The story had text that was easy to read and understand. In the story you were kept guessing, you were never sure what was going to happen next.

The book was all about Tom and he must get to the bridge before he is swept away. One morning Tom woke in his tent to hear people outside yelling. Theywere all running past histent and rushing for the gate. The mountain stream was much wider now and was spilling out across the grass. The water was all over the campsite now and running towardsTom who was running down the mountain. Tom was not only hearing the water behind him, there was another sound. There was a girlon a small motorbike behind him. Tomgot ontothe bike with the girl and held on as she tooka short cut over the small track that went through thetrees. Up along the mountainside, riding through nettles and bushes, the river never followed. They made it tothe bridge but that is where this sory begins, you must read the book to hear the whole story.

I am giving this book a star rating of five, it was a fantastic adventure story. More stories like this one please.
