the golden fleece

What was the author's purpose(s) in writing this book, and how can you tell? How well was this purpose achieved?




                                              
          I think that the author's purpose in writing this book is to amuse the reader. I think this because every scene in the book is breath tacking and it's written in a way that makes the reader feel powerful. Like when Jason the main character in the book was falling for one of the maidens in the book and next thing you know the maiden's mother's child gets snatched by the god Zeus. Zeus was the god of the sky and he was the ruler of the rest of the gods. The more that you keep reading the more exciting things get. This book is a fiction book and thats how you know that things can get really dramatic and anything can happen. After this book all i think about is what would I be like if i was a god. And this book is very interesting and it was a last minute book to bring to class. I am happy that I could read this book and after I am done with it I will read it again and again. 
         I say that the author succeeded in writing this book because the language of it is very old like how the roman gods used to talk and that really brings out some ones imagination. The purpose of this book was accomplished because I searched up the name of this book  and all i found were good reviews of it and a lot of people talking about there favorite part in the book. Oh, and by the way my favorite part was in the beginning when all the worriers came together and every worrier watched as the great and might Hercules joined them in there quest to get the Golden Fleece. This was the best part for me because I love Hercules for being super strong and for opening all the other worriers eyes and astonishing every single person there. When I read his name in the book I knew that things were going to get ugly so I had to read on.

  1. Bassam, I think you need to elaborate a lot more on your points. For Example, when you say "book is breath tacking", elaborate on HOW it is breathtaking, do it provide very detailed imagery? Or do the words make you feel awesome. You also need to provide TAGS in the introduction, tell the reader some background about the book. You also need to make the post longer, at least 800 words I think.

  2. I think you need to add more questions to expand not only upon the word length, but also upon the understanding of the book. I can't say i don't agree with whom ever it may be, but you don't even have a well putout introduction atleast include TAGS. It wouldn't hurt to elaborate and explain things either.
