Book Review 2

The return, Hatchet by Gary Paulsen is the sequel to Gary Paulsen, Hatchet.
This book sets two years after the first book.
After that incident, he was famous and was well known, the press followed him wherever he went and he went to college through his father's money and some help from his mother.
Three men then turned up, they were from a survival school and they wanted Brian to return to the wild and teach them the skills he had used.
He agreed and set off with Derek, a psychologist and upon arrival, Brian instructed him to leave all the things that would later tempt them when they went hungry. There, Brian taught Derek the nesccesary things that was needed to be found and the items that needed to be set up.
When Derek gets hit by lightning and falls into a coma, it was up to Brian to find a way to get help with only a map, a knife and his brain at his disposal. With a radio that was fried by lightning, the only possible way to get help is to travel 6 kilometres in water to reach a trading post where help can be found.
