It seems like there are three others to follow under the same Tiger series, namely: tiger's quest, tiger's voyage and tiger's destiny.  How does your boy like the book?
Is it more of a girls' book as I saw comments comparing it to twilight???

Mesmering, my boy's still in the middle of book 1. So far he's happy with it. I'm also reading it because I want to know how much romance stuff is there. There are some kisses... but also adventures for boys so I guess he will read on. In fact he has recommended it to a girl classmate and seems like they both enjoy it.

Hahahaa, kisses.  I can imagine my boy feeling impatient/ uneasy and turn his pages quickly to skip thru them.  : )Besides the above mentioned series like Alex rider and Cherub,  we recently read a quite unique story,The Giver, by Lois Lowry.  You may want to have a look if your son is able to handle mature theme.

My boy shared the romance parts with me... and the uneasy one was ... me.    He just found them silly...



Anyway I took the chance to share with him how to find a good gf and a good wife!

He was reading Alex Rider before he came across the Tiger's Curse. I'm not sure if he's now reading both series together. The Giver... I found it boring... hehe!

I heard good comments about Giver. Does it have significant mature contents?

It is about people living in a ordered community without freedom . It touches on issues like teenage sexual arousal(and the suppression of it)infanticide,suicide and old age.  A very original story indeed.  My husband actually read the story simultaneously as well and discussed various issues with my son through the way.

Thanks. I didn't know Giver has so much mature content.  I must read it first.

It just touches on those issue lightly.  We took it as a good chance to discuss those taboo/ thought provoking issues with our son and made it a life exploring lesson.  Freedom, suicide and old age.  I passed the teenage sexual arousal part to my husband to handle as ours is a boy.

If you find Giver a little bit too much, there is another award winning book by the same author suitable for @G7/8; Number the Stars.  A story on friendships , Jewish family and Nazi.

shadeslayer  This reminds me of a good book "The fault of our star" by John Green, which deals with cancer children.  發表於 13-3-30 12:43

It is Number The Stars by Lois Lowry, not "of stars".
The book you mentioned, is it a fiction?

Yes, it was a typo.  The fault of our star is fiction. I like it a lot.

Is it the weather? recent interests all on serious and sad books?

I have read The fault in Our Stars. It's touching but really sad. I had to read "The 100-Year-Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared" to cheer myself up after that!

My girl said she liked the number the star. First of her book that talks so much about world war, Germans and Jews.

This is the beauty of kindle.  I saw your book, bought it in kindle and she completed it, all in a few hours, together with swimming and dinner in between.  Technology is a lovely thing sometimes.  Well, she needs only about 40 minutes to read this one.
