Review on ‘stone cold’:

Stone cold is a book written by Robert Swindells, the plot of the

story is set on two people, one who is homeless (Link) and one who

kills because he believes that the homeless cuter the place.

Robert Swindells is clever at writing the story, as he switches

between the two characters link and shelter, the characters in the

story are all different and lead very different lives, Shelter who

used to be in the army left after problems, now he believes that he is

still in the army and is on a mission to kill people especially

homeless people on the streets, he makes his own recruits and then

kills them brutally, he believes that he is making the place look

tidier and cleaner.

Then there is Link, Link has had a lot of trouble at home, and he has

left his family and friends to lead a better life on the streets ,

though he is finding it hard to survive, and has had trouble

rationing the money he had. He finds him self in London, he only

survives as he finds a bed mate, however when ginger suddenly

disappears link is all back on his own in the great city of London,

then he meets Gail, but then a again like all the people he meets, he

finds that she is a reporter, and then he comes face to face with

shelter and ginger in a way.

Robert Swindells makes this book interesting, by making the suspense

last, and he uses big long words to create an atmosphere, he brings

shelter to life, he creates link by bringing him into shelter and into

the insecure street life of London, he makes you feel sad and grabs

your feelings and puts them in the story, he makes you feel sorry of
