FIRE BY NIGHT was an interesting book to read! It is Historical Fiction Book. It was based in Boston, Massachusetts. It is fiction but the hurricane and Harvard University are real things. There were real people in it too, like Roger Williams and King Charles 1. The characters in this book have features like bravery and willingness to do whatever there family needs. I liked this book because Philip (the main character)was determined to help his family out and do what is right !
