Mark Crilleys best book ever

I loved this book becases of the action i read in it.I mean when Billy found out that his parents where not what he thought they where. The adreniln in this book was just amzing, my heart was ponding in the last few chapters.Plus, Billy's dog that was amzing what he did in the story. So if you like book's that from the vary beging start out with the action and thought the rest of the story go on with it this book isen't for you. But, if you like story's that tell you how maby the person is sad or happy befor the adrenilen starts then this book is deffently for you.

My Favorite Book Ever

I really liked this book because of all the cool gadgets Billy used. How Billy found out about the cave was my favorite part. I thought it was great that Billy's parents weren't as boring a he thought they were.

One Good Book!!!!!!!!

Billy Clikk Creatch Battler, by Mark Crilley, is a book full of excitement, fantasy, and some humor. These things combined make it a great book! I don't know how many other people like it though, because it hasn't won any awards. Mark Crilley is also the illustrator and he does a wonderful job, too. This is a fiction book and is one of the better books I've ever read! Billy Clikk is an average teenager. All he really cares about in life is school and making it to the X-Games (extreme sports competition) one day, until he finds out something that will change his life forever! Linda and Jim Clikk have gotten Billy to believe that they were exterminators for the past thirteen years. While they're on a business trip or "skeeter gig" as they call them, Billy finds all sorts of weird things in his parent's bedroom such as a receipt for 250 pounds of fish heads, a small laptop type thing, and all sorts of books teaching you how to speak different languages. When Linda and Jim get home that night, Billy gets to the bottom of this whole thing and his parents tell him that they're real job is to fight monster-like creatures called creatches. There is an urgent "creatch op" or creatch mission in India that Billy has to go to with his parents and after being told to let his parents take care of the work, he eventually finds himself face to face with a creatch! Find out if Billy ever comes out alive and if he does how much trouble he'll get into when you read Billy Clikk Creatch Battle! This book is written very well! It has many unique things about it such as onomatopoeias and a lot of creativity. Mark Crilley has done a wonderful job of writing this book. It has beautiful sentence fluency which makes it easy to follow and a joy to read! I love to read fantasy novels with interesting creatures, and if you are anything like me, it will seem as if Mark Crilley wrote this book for you. Billy Clikk Creatch Battler is an awesome book that anyone would like, but kids ages nine to thirteen would enjoy it the most. If you enjoy this book, you will love the Akiko series, also by Mark Crilley. There are 8 books in the series and you will like all of them just as much, if not more, than Billy Clikk Creatch Battler. That is pretty surprising considering Billy Clikk Creatch Battler is one of the best books I have ever read!
