Book Review: the Protector
The Protector

The Protector, is a Christian Fiction book written by Dee Henderson. While reading the beginning of the book, I thought the book was just going to be a boring book about a firefighter, but after reading the entire book, I realized that there was much more than just the story of a firefighter. I really enjoyed how the author, Dee Henderson, portrayed Jack O'Malley, the firefighter, and his family of seven orphaned and abandoned teens who became a family, and changed there sir to O'Malley.
The Protector is about a firefighter named Jack O'Malley, and his 'family' of seven people orphaned as teens who basically adopted each other and who all changed there sir name to O'Malley. Jack O'Malley is a firefighter who has seen so many wrecks and fires he has lost count, but the arsonist who is treading on he, and his fellow firefighters lives, he knows his task at hand, to stop the arsonist in its tracks before he ends up killing one of his own. Cole, the arson investigator is worried, but wont admit that to anyone, but with the arson’s escalating, he has an uneasy feeling of what the future holds. The arsonist is leaving signs, murals painted on the walls with the words murderer, and killer, and popcorn at every scene. When Cassie, a firefighter who took a break from her job after being severely burned at a nursing home fire that had been ruled as the first arson fire, witnesses the arsonist in the act, she is put in danger and it's Jack and Cole's job to protect her. After Cassie see's the arsonist, she decides she has to go back to work, and she has to help in anyway she can to catch this arsonist, starting with trying to figure out who she had seen, knowing she had seen him before.
I think that the author, Dee Henderson, wrote this book very well. Henderson has an amazing way of showing the emotion f the characters she is portraying on her writings. I feel as though Henderson has a way of writing that warms your heart, making it seem like you are in

    There are several things that I like about this book. First off, I love historical fiction, and this is the genre of this book. Also, despite the author being too descriptive, the book went at a steady pace.

    I enjoyed this book thoroughly and always kept me intrigued until the end. It had small twists in it that were rather easy to interpret but it was also very interesting.

    In world where firemen create fires instead of putting them out. Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury, sends readers into the life of Guy Montag, an average fireman living in a futuristic dystopian society where most books are banned in an effort to make life easier by eliminating controversy. I chose to read Fahrenheit 451 because it is a classic, 60 year old book that is still being sold in stores today so I figured that it had to be an amazing novel, and oh boy was I right.…

    I thought the writer had a really good flow of style and expressed herself really well, especially with the storyline. It was a great story overall, the writer was very graphic with her words and it kind of made me feel like I was there re-living that moment with her. Her style was cool and she built up the story with conflict. The suspense was awesome because she made it feel like it was going to be good from the start to the end, but then I felt the tension when things became dark and muggy. The argumentation was written well and the story ended on a good note. The writer wrote for her people and you could literally…

    I strongly recommend this novel to any teenager or adult who likes realistic fiction novels about life-long experiences and finding ones-self. John Greens language and thought that flow through Miles Halter is absolutely amazing. With every character there is such distinct characteristics about them that make them all so appealing and interesting to keep reading. This novel is certainly a page-turner and made it hard to put the book down as I read further and further into the novel. Connecting with the character,…
