Burning for revenge.

 

            Burning for Revenge is the fifth book in the "Tommorrow" series and is written by John Marsden. The series is set around a group of teenages, in the bush, when Australia is invaded. I have read the whole series and have decieded to to re-read Burning for Revenge because it was my favourite book in the series. Burning for Revenge has the most action of the whole series.
             The story is told by Ellie a 16 year old teenage girl living in the small town of Wirrawee. Her and 6 of her closest friends, Fi, Homer, Kevin, Corrie, Robyn and Lee, go camping in the local mountin range. During their camping trip Australia is invaded and the 7 friends remain uncaptured. They band together as guerrillas, and try to destroy the unknowen enemy.
             In Burning for Revenge the 7 outlaws, now 5 with the capture of Corrie and the death of Robyn in earlier books, atemp to knock out the enemy Air Force Base. Finding the Air Force Base too much of an obsticle and too heavly armed the 5 make their way in the oppisite direction. A run-in with an ememy patrol forces the 5 to hide in a furniture truck. Unable to esape the truck, they remain trapped and unarmed until the truck stops. Through a fluke stroke of luck the 5 find themselves inside a hanger at the Air Force. The very Air Force Base that the group had sought to destroy. Not only must the group destroy the Air Force Base, they must also overcome ther fear and work together to get out. .
