Hovercar Racer by Matthew Reilly


I also liked this book by Matthew Reilly. I really liked this book, i think that it would make a pretty good movie. The main character is Jason Chaser, but my favorite character is the Bug who is Jason's little brother. I also added a copy of the synopsis of this book so you know what it is about. I thought that it was a great read.

A SPORT LIKE NO OTHER
In the world of the near future, the most popular sport in the world is hover car racing. Superfast and dangerous, its heroes are the racers: part fighter pilot, part race-car driver, all superstar.
A BRUTAL QUALIFYING SCHOOL
But to get to the Pro Circuit, you must first pass through the International Race School, a brutal cauldron of wild races on even wilder courses, where only the best of the best will survive.
JASON AND THE ARGONAUT
This is the story of Jason Chaser, a talented young racer selected to attend the Race School. He's younger than the other students. He's smaller. His trusty car, the Argonaut, is older. But Jason Chaser is no ordinary racer. And as he races against the best drivers in the world he will learn that at Race School winning is everything, that not everyone in this world fights fair, and that you never ever have any friends on the track.
Strap on your seat belts and hold on tight because the pace of reading just went supersonic! From Matthew Reilly, author of "Ice Station" and "Scarecrow", comes his most original novel yet - no less than the fastest story ever told.

Seven Ancient Wonders by Matthew Reilly



I loved the plot in this book. the main character is called West. I would recommend that you read this book its a great read, i have copped a copy of the synopsis of the book so you get an idea of what the book is about.

A headlong race to locate the Seven

THE CAPSTONE
A magnificent golden capstone once sat atop the
Great Pyramid at Giza. It was a source of immense
power, capable of bestowing upon its holder
absolute global rule for a thousand years...

structures of the age: monuments that would
become known as the Seven Ancient Wonders of
the World

Now, with the coming of a rare solar evens, the
time has come to locate the pieces and rebuild the
capstone.

AN EPIC QUEST
Everyone wants it. From the most powerful
countries on earth, to gangs of murderous
terrorists... and one daring coalition of either small
nations who think no single country should possess
such an awesome power source.

And so, led by the mysterious Captain Jack West Jr,
this determined group enters the fray, a global
battlefield filled with vicious booby-trapped
mines, stupendous Ancient Wonders, merciless evil
forces, and an adventure beyond imagining.

Ice Station by Matthew Reilly


I thought that this is a great book, there was something always happening and it had no real boring bits! i would recommend it if you liked a bit scary and violet book. i loved the way Matthew Reilly develops his stories. I also like the main character in this book his name is Shane Schofield, he is a marine Lieutenant and he is sent to Antartica to secure a what is thought to be an alien spacecraft.
