BR 1-10: The Blue Cat Club


I read “The Blue Cat Club” Bernard Smith wrote it. I chose this book because I was attracted to the illustration of the book cover. I am going to introduce this story roughly.


The main characters of this story are James and Chantal. They lived in town near Cannes, in France. One day, they planned for the evening. They were going to go to the Blue Cat Club. It is a cabaret. They went there and sat at a table at the front. There were music and people were dancing. Suddenly the music stopped and the cabaret started. There were magic, but James dislike Merlin, the Man of Magic. Then Marlin wanted a volunteer, and James was chosen. He got into a box on the stage. There were five holes in the front of the box. Then Merlin closed the door, and he took a sword and pushed it into a hole in the door of the box. Merlin continued to push other swords. When he pushed a last sword into a hole, James screamed in pain “Aaaaaagh!” Merlin took the swords quickly and opened the front door of the box. James was not moving in the box, and his eyes closed. His shirt was very red, so Merlin panicked at the situation. Then James opened his eyes and smiled at Merlin. He begun to laugh and said “It’s only tomato juice. It’s only my little game, Mr Magic.” Merlin’s face was very red and he went away quickly. Then the music started again and people danced.


This story kept me in suspense. It was very interesting. I think that James is unyielding person.
