desertcart.com: Ascent (A Peak Marcello Adventure, 3): 9780358040644: Smith, Roland: Books Review: GASP! Ah - ha! No way! LOL! Tears and more tears! - ASCENT is my favorite in the series and that is saying something as I have used PEAK in my 7th grade classroom for over ten years. I love character driven novels and sequels that share the growth of the main character. Peak is such a complex character who in ASCENT travels on another perilous climbing adventure. But the book is so much more than just an outdoor adventure novel; it is full of intrigue, family drama, hope, friendship, and even romance, I don't want to share anything that happens in the story as Roland Smith is a master at writing more than what is on the page. Just like Peak this book is complex and on my second read, I not only made all the sounds again that are part of my headline, but also the" hmmm" that comes with thinking about the writing itself. I LOVE all of Roland Smith's books; they are some of my favorites to read over and over and they are NEVER on my shelf once school starts. Even if you haven't read the other novels in the series you should read ASCENT. However, starting with PEAK and reading through the series is definitely worth the time and worth the wait to get to ASCENT. Now, if you have read PEAK and THE EDGE make sure you don't read ASCENT on a plane ride while gasping and screaming out, "No, Way!" and "Stop It!" and scaring your fellow passengers. Can't wait for whatever is next!! Note to teachers - if you need a novel that will transform student's critical reading experience try PEAK. Review: Book - Great book
