final summer post- Revolver

Wolf asked Sig while they sat in the cabin waiting for Anna to return how they got here in Alaska. Wolf had waited for the first ship to sail out once summer was starting. when he got to the drop off the passenger list showed that Einar and his children had never sailed on a boat the summer before. To get away from Wolf Einar knew he could not sail on the ship with is 2 kids. He bought 4 dogs and a sled and the were off. They traveled light, Only carrying little amounts of food with blankets and jackets. Wolf stopped Sig, "you mean to tell me that Einar took 2 small children hundreds of miles across the ice on a dog sled?" "yes" Sig replied. The thing wolf asked Sig was, "where is the gold your father stole from me?" Sig did not know what Wolf meant by this. What Wolf forgot to mention was Einar rented a room above the tavern and took Wolf there. He put the acid that they use to test gold in his whisky and knocked him out before he could force Einar to give him "half" the gold he had. Einar had no gold. At least that's what he told Wolf.
Once Anna showed up, Sig was sad to see that she was alone. Eventually Wolf tied Anna to a chair and took Sig to the spot where his father died to find the papers he brought from the office thinking they might show Wolf something.

In this book I have noticed that not a lot happens. There is just so much detail in it.
what did I think of this book? I though that it had some parts where it just drug on about the same thing but some parts where I couldn't put the book down. I would rate this book 3.5 on a scale of 5.
If you like drama this book isn't something you would like. The unique thing about this book is that it will leave on one topic and the next chapter will be about something totally different. Read it to find out what happens in the end.

Does Sig die?
Does Anna?
Will wolf ever leave them alone?
Did Einar ever have any gold?

3rd summer post

I have continued to read revolver by Marcus Sedgwick. I left my last post by telling you about Sigs farther being dead. That he fell threw the ice and froze to death before he could start a fire. He now lies on the table in the middle of the cabin in Alaska. This is a man who came to the cabin on a "giant white horse." His name... Wolf. He talks a lot about his journey, tracking down Einar (Sig's father). he followed them for ten years.
Wolf tells Sig many stories, but my favorite was how Einar got away. They were going to leave Nome, a place with short summers and long cold winters. Sig's father was the man that weighed all the miners gold and tested it for purity. One day when Einar was locking up the station a large man bumped into him. "Test my gold" he said. Einar apologized telling the man he would have to come back the next morning but the man shoved him hard against the wall, "you listen here, I wont have my cabin robbed wile I wait here to have my gold tested tomorrow. Test it now." Einar still refused but luckily a few of the guys from work were headed home from the bar and saw him. Wolf let him go. The next day wolf returned, but his gold was of only 10% purity. Wolf stayed in the shop all day. not moving other than to stretch. He watched as miners came in person after person with some very pure gold and some not worth anything.
Einar and his family planned to take the very last ship out of Nome off to America. The last day when Sig was out playing watching the ships sail in and out, Maria, the children's real mother told Anna to go get Sig so they could eat the last dinner they would ever eat in Nome. An hour later after she ran into her father and they found Sig the all walked back to the cabin. Anna walked in first and saw her mother on the floor in "an awfully still position. She watched as the brown floor changed to a dark red." Maria had been murdered.
