Scarrow, Simon. Gladiator: Fight for Freedom. 272 pgs.
Hyperion Book, 2012. $16.99. Language-
PG, Mature Content- G, Violence- PG. This book is about a boy whose father was
an old centurion who did a good deed for the king and saved the king’s
life. In return, his father was able to
get one free slave from the king’s army.
He chose a woman and married her.
They had a child named Marcus.
Marcus helped his father fight off soldiers and was captured. How will Marcus escape and free his
family? I liked this book because the
main character was about my age and I felt like I was living his life. It was an easy read. There is a lot of action to keep you
interested. EL. MS.
