The wall book report

Chapter 1: the wall is cold.

Chapter 2: like really cold.

Chapter 3: also there's for shadowing.  The Captain is a liar.

Chapter 4: There's girls on the wall so it's not all bad. Hifa is the name of a girl.

Chapter 5: if you screw up they give you more time on the wall.  The captain gives people extra time every day.  We haven't seen it but sarge says it, so it must be legit.  Also the Captain used to be an other.

Chapter 6: you get to visit home after 2 weeks on the wall.  Our main character is named Kavanagh.  There is lots of drinking on the train home.

Chapter 7: Kavanagh's relationship with his parents reminds me of the lonely island song f*** off.

Chapter 8:  they saw lights out at sea.

Chapter 9: a lady got to leave the wall and they had a party to celebrate.  They have another two week break and they are using one to go camping.  They have slaves they call "help.". There is more foreshadowing. 

Chapter 10: they didn't go back to their section of the wall.  They went to a different section where you take turns defending and attacking.  They started defending and they got messed up.

Chapter 11: now it's their turn to attack and it's the best attack ever.

Chapter 12: they are getting drunk and karaoke is happening.  Some political guy gives a speech about how the others are coming in higher numbers.  But it's worse than that.  They are getting help from the inside. 

Part 2: the others

Chapter 13:  they got attacked.  The lady that brings people tea and cookies died. Hifa asked kavanaugh if he would breed with her.

Chapter 14:   they are breeding and things are less bad.

Chapter 15: they are going North.  But before that they are visiting Hifa's mom, who sucks.

Chapter 16: they are up north, the politician gave them another speech.  Kavanagh got a medal.  They got attacked super bad.  the captain killed sarge.  He is in league with the others.  At least a dozen others escaped.  That's bad.

Chapter 17: after a lot of bs they are put to sea.

Part 3: the sea

Chapter 18: they are on a boat with Hughes, the politician and the captain.

Chapter 19: they are stuck on a boat and it sucks.  The captain explains he has always been an other and has always been working with the other others this whole time.  They find land.

Chapter 20: turns out the land isn't land as much as a bunch of rocks but it's enough to make the water calm enough that a floatila of boats has made it home.  Kabanaugh becomes a diver.  He finds sea weed and all rejoice.  The Captain told the floaters they were defenders.  There is foreshadowing about fire.

Chapter 21: there was a storm and it was scary.  But not as scary as the GIANT ship that showed up after.

Chapter 22: they shoot the captain in the head.  They are pirates and they take everything of value from the community.  This sucks.  Pirates suck.  I am anti pirate.  The politician takes his grenade and blows up the pirate ship.  The resulting explosion causes their little boat to float away from the floatila.  Now they are floating out to sea.

Chapter 23: they drift for a while.  They figure they can make it a week with the water they have.  They collect enough rain water that they figure they could last two weeks now.  They find an oil rig.  They didn't find any way to climb up.   Then they see a ladder that they are pretty sure was lowered down by a person.

Chapter 24: they meet the person.  It's a non communicative emaciated guy.  Hifa says she doesn't want to breed.  They live happily ever after.
