Joseph Bruchac's Code Talker

I think that Joseph Bruchac’s novel Code Talker is a great book. The plot of the novel is very interesting and detailed. For example, during the second half of the book, the plot is kept entertaining by talking about different battles Ned was in, such as when Ned says, “[t]he Japaneses had waited until we Americans had swarmed up the first slope and were like sitting ducks on the wide plain before the next terrace” (Bruchac). This shows that the plot is never dry, and the plot is always enjoyable. Along with an enjoyable plot, the novel portrays many different and detailed settings. One example of this is when Ned says, “[i]f you pushed your hand down too far into loose sand your skin would be burned” when Ned is describing the island of Iwo
Jima (Bruchac). This quote shows very detailed settings because the author included many small, but interesting details as previously shown. Overall, the novel had a good plot and very detailed settings
