Dynamic Change in the Main Character

In my independent reading book The Last Apprentice, Thomas Wards the main character in the book changed from being a cowardice person into someone who is brave. Here is a quote in the book before he changed, "You, an apprentice to a spook! How can you do a job like that when you still can't even sleep without a candle?"(Page 8) Now here's a quote after he changed, "You see, rather than being filled with fear, i was all ice and fire, a full hot anger ready to explode."(Page 311)

The Last Apprentice

The Main character Tom is an apprentice of the Spook. To be an apprentice you have to be the seventh son of the seventh son. In the future I think that Tom will face many problems because being a Spook deals with supernatural things like boggarts, ghast, and witches.

Connection

My independent reading book is The Last Apprentice Revenge of The Witch. My book connects to Harry Potter. They are both similar because the main characters are kind of the same. This is a quote from my book "We're the seventh sons of seventh sons, and we have a gift of seeing things that others can't. But the gift can sometimes be a curse." In Harry Potter there is something similar to this, Harry has a scar on his head and it's a curse sometimes but it can be helpful to him.
