Bookreport on Skyjack by Tom Vicary

1) The title of the book: Skyjack! Number of pages: 59

2) Name of the author: Tim Vicary

3) Explain the title of the book: The book is named

Skyjack!, because the story is about a plane that is hijacked.

4) Which division of the book did you liked most? Explain why. I liked the middle of the book the most, because that is the part with all the action. The hijackers kill a person in that part. And Harald tries to knock one of the hijackers down.

5) Which division of the book you didn’t like at all? Explain why. I did not like the begin. It is not bad at all, but when you compare it with the rest of the book it is, because the rest of the book is so fascinating. And in the begin they just tell you where the story takes place and who the main characters are.

6) If you had to choose, which character of the story would you be? Explain why. I would choose Harald, because he is a strong, hansom, young bodyguard. And he tries to knock the hijackers out, so he has courage to. And he makes the most interesting actions.

7) Name a individual which you hated or which you could be going to hate. Explain why. I hate the bearded hijacker, because he does not care about any one inside the airplane. He doesn’t kill them, because they are the only reason for the Prime minister to free the hijackers two brothers. But he just wants to kill them for no reason.

8) In which year does the story take place? The story takes place around the last decennia of the twentieth century.

9) Did you like the end of the book? clarify your answer. Yes I liked it, it was a pity that one hostage was killed, but if he wasn’t the story wouldn’t be as good as it is now.

10) Compare the main characters of the book in the begin with the same characters at the end of the book. The most characters didn’t change a lot.

Carl and Harald: In the begin they are excited, for the reason that they are going home. In the end they doubt if they would even get to see their home ones more.

The female hijacker: In the beginning she is a lovely air hostess, but in the end she is a cruel killer and hijacker.

The two man hijackers: They didn’t change, even not a little bit. They were all the time cold bloody murderers without any brains.

11) What kind of story would you want to call it? You can choose more possibilities if it is a combination. I call it an adventure roman. I think that it is obvious with all the action and the killing.

12) If you take the beginning and the end of the story is there a lot of time between those
