It was fiction
I liked John Blake
Actually I don't know why it interested me
I think I would recommend it to someone else if they are not younger than the age of 8

Quite a short graphic novel about dead sailors aboard a time-travelling ship trying to thwart a billionaire. A girl accidentally finds herself aboard but she doesn't visit other time zones.

There is a lot going on in this graphic novel but essentially the plot centres around a mysterious time-travelling ship that is being hunted by a villain who will go to any lengths to track her down. It’s fun and action-packed. The story gallops along at pace, spanning the globe and different time eras. The art by Fred Fordham is stunning, especially the larger panels. I would recommend this graphic novel for 12 years plus, it would be particularly good for encouraging a child who doesn’t feel confident reading text-heavy stories but enjoys action and adventure in other media.

This book is good as it is about a mystery. I liked the main Character - John Blake as it had allot of action which I like like they ran with Sareena while the police where after them in Fiji. I would not recommend this book to people who do not like books but only people who like reading books such as my friends. I will give this book a 4 star as it was ok ok but i liked most of the book. :D

I thought the book was exciting and amazing. The best part I liked of the story was when John lifted up the missing shape. I think someone else should read it because it’s exciting and it’s amazing.
