What do You think about Public Enemy Number Two (2004)?
I JUST FINISH READING THIS BOOK.I REALLY LIKE THIS BOOK.ONE REASON I REALLY LIKED THIS BOOK IS BECAUSE IT EXPLAIN SETTING VERY GOOD.FOR AND EXAMPLE ON THE PAGE 174 THERE WAS ALOT OF ACTION INSIDE AND OUTSIDE Of WAPPING STREET.THERE WERE A BURING BUILDING.MANY PEOPLE WERE RUNNING IN AND OUT AND MUCH MORE.THE WHOLE STREET IS COVERED WITH COPS,SWAT TEAM, MORE FARMERS THEN POLICES,PEOPLE GETTING ARRESTED.A 13 YEAR OLD NICK (DIAMOND) SIMPLE HAD SAVED EVERY ONE IN LONDON.THERE WERE PEOPLE THERE IN SHOCK WONDERING WHAT WAS HAPPENING.BUT MOSTLY EVERYONE IN LONDON NEW WHAT WAS HAPPENING. ON PAGE 132 NICK(DIAMOND)SIMPLE GOT DROPPED HOME BY HIS FRENCH TEACHER MR.PALIS.AS MR.PALIS DROVE OFF NICK SAW A LITTLE PIECE OF YELLOW WIRE, HE NEW IF HE RANG THE BELL SOMETHING WILL EXPLOD.SO HE CLIMB THE WINDOW TO TIM ROOM HIS BIG BROTHER.GUESS WHAT NICK SAW.... HE SAW A CLOCK BOMB.IT WILL BE 6 MINUTES TO AN EXPLOSION APPEAR.SO NICK TOOK A FEW MINUTES MAYBE 4 MINUTESTO CUT OFF THE WIRES TO EXPLOD. YOU WOULD LIKE THIS BOOK IF YOU ARE A PERSON WHO LIKES HEARING OR SEEING VIOLENT THINGS.I SAY THIS BECAUSE YOU NEVER NO IF SOMEONE WILL BE KIDNAPPED,FOLLOWED OR KILLED AND MANY MORE.THERE'S ALOT OF KILLING IN THIS BOOK TO BE HONEST.YOU MIGHT ALSO BE THE ONE Who WILL BE SSET UP BY THE POLICE. YOU MAY ALSO LIKE THIS BOOK IF YOU LIKE TO GET SHOT OR KILLED OR MAYBE GET SHOT BY A FRENCH TEACHER NAME MR.PALIS. ONE BIG CHALLENGE OF THIS BOOK IS THE FRENCH AND GREEK LANGUAGE IN MR,PALIS CLASSROOM.IT WAS TEACHED BY MR.PALIS THE FRENCH/GREEK TEACHER.THE 2ND CHALLENGING PART OF THE BOOK IS BEING TO FIND OUT THE PERSON NAME THE FENCE. WELL NICK FOUND OUT THAT HIS TEACHER MR.PALIS IS THE PERSON THE COPS BEEN LOOKING FOR.FOR 12 YEARS THE WHOLE SWAT BEEN ON The LOOK OUT FOR THIS CRIME SEEN.THANKS TO NICK SIMPLE HE HELPED THE FBI AND COPS BEEN LOOKING FOR.. I THINK THE 13YEAR OLD BOY NAMED NICK(DIAMOND)SIMPLE WAS THE MOST INTERESTING CHARACTER IN THE BOOK.AT FIRST YOU MAY THINK THAT NICK IS A DUMB BOY THAT JUMP OFF A PLANE WHILE HIM AND HIS MOTHER AND FATHER WERE GOING TO SPEND TIME WITH THEM IN FRANCE.BUT HE WAS ACTUALLY THE FIRST YOUNGEST BOY TO BE FRAMED ,TRIED AND SENT TO JAIL, MENACED ,CHASED,SHOT AT ,KIDNAPPED ,KNOCKED OUT, TIED TO A RAILWAY TRACK, ALMOST BLOWNED UP,MENACED SOME MORE, TIED UP AGAIN ,HALF DROWNED,AND EXHAUSTED.

tPublic Enemy Number Two is a mystery novel by Anthony Horowitz. It is part of the Diamond Brothers series, which focuses on Nick Diamond, a fourteen year old boy who lives with his private detective brother. In this book, Nick is framed for a jewel robbery by two police men who want him to get near a convict named Johnny Powers. While in jail, Nick shares a cell with Powers, and becomes involved in his escape plans. After escaping, Nick and Tim are caught in the middle of a gang war between Powers’ gang and a rival group. I think that the conflict in this book is mainly external because Nick is trying to escape from jail and find out Powers’ plans.tI thought this book was very well written. It used very clever and catchy dialogue that is typical of a fourteen year old boy. The plot is suspenseful and exciting, and I was on the edge of my chair throughout the book. The book was very funny, and gave a very accurate description of the setting, which is modern day London. I would recommend this book to all readers who like a good mystery. tI think this book is a lot like the Harry Potter series because Nick is accused of something he did not do, like in The Chamber of Secrets. Throughout the whole book, Nick is trying to clear his name by finding out who Johnny’s supplier is, which reminds me of Harry trying to find out who the real heir of Slytherin is. I really enjoyed this book. 263

1) I really enjoyed the book Public Enemy number 2 because the author describes every scene carfully and adds details. For example when Nick was on a class trip and then a necklance landed in his hands. He ran and the author said that he jumped into a lions area and then the warden came and knocked out Nick. Another example is that Johhny tied a white towel in one of the guards mouth and takes him hostage. They bring down the draw brigde and then throw the guard at the others and jump into a car.2) You would like this book if you liked mystery because Nick has to find out who the Fence is and then find teh purple bird stolen from a muesum. I say his because they have to get Powers to talk.4) One charcter Ma Powers is insane because she has a machine gun in her bag and randomly stars firing at police cars. I say she needs some theropy. She is creepy.
