Modern fiction genres

Percy Jackson and the lightning thief.
Percy  Jackson and the lightning thief is a fantasy because there are talking animals called the centaurs and there are gods and magical powers like percy  jackson summoning a wave. Its also is coming of age because he's young and has to make the choice of going on his quest and only in the end he finds out who his dad is. Its also a suspense because he almost dies a lot so it gives a lot of suspense.

 Young Sherlock Holmes.
Sherlock Holmes is a mystery he has to solve puzzles and solve crimes and obtain secrets. Its also a realistic fiction because sherlock holmes and watson could exist. Its also a coming of age becuase sherlock holmes is reasonably young,often has to make difficult choices like to trust someone or not and and only finds out the mystery at the end of the book. There is also suspense because there are lots odf shooting and fights which give suspense.


Jeffery Archer Only time will tell
Its a coming of age because harry is only a boy. He also has the choice of going to bristol grammar school or not and he only finds out who his dad is at the end of book. It also has suspense because theres the danger of being caught snooping around a house. Its also realistic fiction because the characters could actually exist and the characters are involved in real historical events. Its could also be a mystery because he investigates who his father is around a certain person.



Sound of Thunder.
I think its a science fiction because its set in the future(2040),and is set in a different dimension where time travel exists. Its also a suspense because when the T-Rex attacks them its dangerous.


All in a summers day.
I think its a science fiction because its set in the future on Mars in a different time period and dimension. I think it also has suspense because when she's locked in the underground closet theres the danger of here dying. Its also realistic diction because the characters could actually exist like the children or the teachers and it could really happen that we go and live on Mars.


Raymond's Run.
I think it was a suspense because there was a danger of Raymond's sister loosing and being humiliated by Gretchen. I also think its a realistic fiction because Raymond and his sister could actually exist and could be involved in real races .
