There are 19 review(s) for Silverfin

Silverfin is a great book very imaginitive and should have got through

I think that silverfin is good, but starts to get boring at the end

I think that silverfin is ok, it got boring at the end so I gave it a 6 out of 10

Silverfin is a fantastically, wonderfully, superbly,brilliantly amazing novel written by the one and only Charlie Higson. It is absolutely impossible to put down, as if it is glued to your hands. I cannot imagine anyone who could not possibly like it. So long, J.K. Rowling!

Silverfin is a gripping book to do with James Bond as a kid. It has an interesting plot and takes a number of strange twists. It is an amazing book.

dont talk about this book in bad way

DO YOU ALL UNDERSTAND.

hahahahhaha

SILVERFIN ROCKS

YAHHHHHHHHHHHHH HOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HIHI

It`s me again, Fatima. Well Ialready sent a review , now Ihave read the book and it`s good, but not good as Stuff.

I loved this book, it was great. Amara Shafiq is wrong!!!!!! I think it is one of the best books I have ever read, and I’m not just saying that. READ THIS BOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It’s fabfabfabfabfabfabfab FAB!!!

Ithink that Silverfin is ok, it has a lot of action in it

It was a boring book, not much funny or exiting just boring. I’m giving it 0/10. RUBBISH!!!!!!!!!!!

I think Silverfin is brilliant. It is slow at the start but the part where they get on the train onwards is great. Read the book and you will really enjoy it !!!!!

I haven't finished it yet, but I think it is the best book I have read so far, because it is filled with a lot of action and as you read it you can’t stop reading.

When you see the books front page its as if it's kind of for boys ,but when I read it I thought just because of the front cover it doesn't really make a difference. I thought that this was the best book I ever read so far. I couldn't stop reading it. I was like 'oh Idont want to go to school ,or sleep'. I really wanted to read it again and again. My conclusion is it was GREAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT!

SO I THINK THIS BOOK SHOULD WIN AND WANT MORE PEOPLE TO READ IT!!!!!

I thought it was really good, and even if you first look at the cover its kind of a boy book. But when I read it in my book club it was fantastic.

The book is interesting now that i've read it . I suggest if you make it into a film it will be really good .

I think this will be the best book even though i did not finish it yet.

I will say give a chance to this book. If you are reading this book you can relate to some things that James Bond does when he is older.

It the best book out of this list.

I have read four chapters andIthink it is very interesting. It grabs your attention, and it will be good in the next couple of pages. I think Charlie Higson is a very good author, and I am looking forward for his next ones, good bye

Silverfin is the best book i have ever read, (sorry i have not read it just for this), but it is good and what a book? i read it a few months ago and didn`t put it down all night,even in school i kept reading it , what a book?

i haven't read it yet but i think is going to be really intresting and well written.
