IT WOULD BE A CRIME TO PUT THE BOOK DOWN!

Stephen Ferguson

The House of the Scorpion is full of adventure and complex issues that keep you glued to this book. This story is about a clone named Matt whoes purpose is only to give an organ to the original if needed. It tells of the first 14 years of his life and all of the problems that he has to go through. This book is very interesting and I think that anyone would be able to enjoy it regardless of its length.

This is a great book, def. recommend it! Great story line and gives hints to what's really going on... Matt goes form a nothing to anyone to , well you will see... The length might discourage but it is amazing! I love all the characters and their plots..

Sam Johnson

I think this book was a very good nancy farmer book, she did a excellent job with the details! it was like I was there! this book made me think of all humans and how cruel we can be to one another..... it was like a story from a dogs point of view, for how cruel humans can be to anything thats not quite human..... the ending was spectacular! I never knew how this book would turn out, but it was excellent!
