For today's post, I've decided to do a compare and contrast of this book called, "Spirit Animals: Blood Ties" and "Five Nights at Freddy's", at the end of every paragraph I'll say which book is better according to that topic. My first topic for which to compare and contrast are the games. For "Five Nights at Freddy's" the game has a series just like the book. However, although Spirit Animals has a series for its book the game has no followup. Now let me just say that the game for Spirit Animals looks like complete trash (in my opinion). For Five Night's at Freddy's their fanbase is about 5xs larger and is still going. And they have no excuse as to why their game is so bad! I mean, the first Five Nights at Freddy's game was made in 2014 while theirs was created in 2015! That is a whole year full of time they could have used to make their game better.
Now for the plot of the book, in Spirit Animal there is a group called, "Greencloaks" that have a job. They are supposed to defeat the Conquerer who plans on bringing the peace and balance of Erdas to ruins (Erdas is where the story takes place in "Spirit Animals"). Meilin, Rollan, Abeke, and Conor are all teenagers from different sections of Erdas. They were called by the Greencloaks to take part in a nectar ceremony. You see, in the book when a child reaches a certain age they are allowed to drink nectar and hopefully find a spirit animal. However, the four of these children have been very lucky and connect with the "Four Fallen" or "The Great Beasts". They were the spirit animals that helped defeat the "Conquerer" a long time ago. Now that he has come back they stick with their human companions to defeat him once and for all.
I really like this book but wish I had the first book, right now I have the third one. Its a similar situation to when I read "Five Night's at Freddy's". I only had the second one but never got to read the first. In "Five Night's at Freddy's" a group of teenagers (similar to Spirit Animals) are all childhood friends (different from "Spirit Animals"). Then one day they enter a pizzeria where "The Protagonist" (Charlie) finds herself in a problem where her father's death has led her always back to the pizza place that is now partly destroyed. Charlie decides to go to this place one last time with her friends and gets trapped by the animatronics. "Bonnie, Freddy, Chica, and Foxy" are the three robots on stage that supposedly try and kill the kids before they can escape. Honestly, there are way more differences than similarities between these books.
I mean, "Five Night's at Freddy's" book series was based on a horror game, while "Spirit Animals" has more of an action and adventure type of story. I guess you can say that for the "Gaming" topic "Five Night's at Freddy's" beat "Spirit Animals" by a long shot. However, the story plot for "Spirit Animals" seems to appeal to a bigger audience than "Five Night's at Freddy's". The score is both tied evenly so we can't really say which one is better. To be honest, some people who just say that "Five Night's at Freddy's" is way better but it only has three books (the third one just came out) while "Spirit Animals" has over 10! Now for the remainder of this paragraph, I want this to be directed towards my father, the reason you saw me on the internet "supposedly copying" was because I didn't read the first book. In addition, I haven't even finished the book I have right now. Another reason, why instead of doing a whole summary I wanted to compare and contrast.
Google News
For today's story, it is going to be about raccoons. Now I know this seems to be very weird but let me explain. There are now "Overwatch" and "Fortnite" posts on the news. I don't feel like talking about "Donald Trump" because just the mention of his name makes me gag. And now popular drama out in the world is really making me excited. Now if there's one thing that can top this its animals. Especially when the post is called, "He thought something was wrong with the raccoon, then it stood on its hind legs...". That right there really makes me interested. So apparently, there is this disease called, "Distemper" and it makes an animal (not including humans) go crazy, mainly due to brain damage. When I saw the pictures it really disturbed me. Raccoons who were affected by this would come out in the daytime and just walk on their hind legs. Usually, they come out in the night and never stand. Anyway, that is it for today's post.
