Pendragon Book Five: Black Water by D.J. MacHale. Genre: Adventure Fiction. Pages read: 112 ( 55 mins)

The words I chose are tensile, obligatory, exertion and bantering. Tensile means sufficiently ductile to be stretched or drawn out. Obligatory means required to be done, obtained, possessed, etc. Exertion means strenuous effort. Bantering means cleverly amusing in tone.

This time, Bobby had to go to Eelong. Gunny was supposed to be just looking at what they were going to be up against since Saint Dane was going there next. But he didn't come back, so Bobby has to go. He finds out that the quigs are humans, and humans are primitive and not the superior life forms! Instead, big cats that don't have a tail, talk, and can walk on their hind legs are. Some keep humans as pets and they are even thinking about taking back a law that allows them to eat humans! There is not enough food to supply the growing population of people, so that is why. But then the Traveler from Eelong comes to Second Earth and dies of poisoning, just like the poison on Cloral. So now Mark and Courtney can go to different territories since the rules have changed and the walls between the territories are crumbling. They are about to go to Cloral for the antidote.
I think that it might be a bad idea if Mark and Courtney travel to Cloral because they are not supposed to. But they might be able to save Eelong if they do. So it might work. I hope nothing bad happens.
