I think the story rating should be 9.5 and the illusrations rating should be 0.This book was well written. I enjoyed it (it was adictive). I personally thought Skellig was some kind of diformed monster. I thought Skellig was going to hurt Micheal or Mina. I dont call my friends things like Leaky and Coot! You will have to read the rest of the book to find out what happens next. I would recommend this book with a age range between 12-15. I gave the story a rating of 9.5 because its not my cup of tea but it was still very good. I was going to give it a rating of 9 but I thought I would be generous and give it a 9.5 story rating. I only gave the illustraions rating 0 because the book I read had no illusrations whatsoever. I think Skellig is anorexic because all he can eat is bluebottles and flies.
