Book Reviews of Beyond the Chocolate War
Book Review: Great book!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a great book, and a worthy sequel to Robert Cormier's outstanding book The Chocolate War. I was afraid that the sequel would not live up to the standards set by its predecessor, but it lives up to expectations, and even passes the level of quality in the Chocolate War. It's everything you want in a sequel.
The book starts out slow, but then you realize it starts it out slow for a reason, as it needs to introduce some key characters and plots that will be in play in the book. It soon gets into the action, though, with robert Cormier doing what he does best: Making Archie manipulate others, even manipulating his two top officers, Carver and
Obie. This book touches on subjects that other young adult authors don't, such as rape, extortiong, and cruelty in schools.And at the end, everything culminates into an immensely satisfying conclusion.
