Review Detail

Crispin lives with his mom, Asta. They are very poor, and Crispin doesn't even know his name, all he knows is that he is Asta's son. Asta dies, and this one guy, John Aycliffe,  accuses him of stealing. Aycliffe then declares Crispin a wolf's head, meaning anyone can kill him. Crispin flees, and meets up with Bear, and they become friends. They then set out to find out who Crispinr eally is.

I didn't really like Crispin. He was just... unrealistic. Being his age, I can tell you that there is no way on earth even the strongest man (even a guy like Bear) could throw me over a 12 foot wall. Also, Crispin trusts Bear. Why? Bear tried to imprison him. I would never trust someone who is trying to make me their slave. Another thing- why is there zero action? We could've had something besides walking and talk and walking and talking and- oh look!- dead hanging guys. 

I found the book midly boring and I hated the ending. Hate, hate, hate, hated the ending. I would like to tell you it, but its much more disappointing if you read it yourself. I mean, I had my friend read it and tell me what she thought. She said "Its ok, I hated the ending though."

But now, what did I like? There must be something. Well, I thought the setting was very realistic, the men hanging dead in the trees is still vivid in my mind. But really, I could imagine it all quite well.
