Another is 'Into Thin Air' by Jon Krakauer. This book is based on the true events of the 1996 Mount Everest disaster. Krakauer was part of the climbing expedition and his book details what went wrong during that fateful climb, including the decisions made and the extreme conditions on the mountain.
I'm not sure of a specific book titled exactly '13 based on true story'. There are many books based on true stories, but this title doesn't ring a bell immediately. It could be a self - published or very niche book.
The 'After' books are not based on a true story. Although they might seem to depict some real - life situations, like college life and relationships, they are products of the author's creativity. The characters and the specific plotlines are made up. For instance, the elaborate love triangle and the extreme situations the characters get into are more of fictional constructs to create drama and keep the readers interested. It's all about creating an engaging fictional world rather than basing it on real events.
No, the 'Books of Blood' are works of horror fiction by Clive Barker. They are not based on a true story. Barker is known for his creative and often very gory and fantastical horror tales.
Definitely. True stories are a rich source of material for authors. People are interested in reading about real events and the people involved. There are always new historical events being discovered or re - examined, and contemporary real - life stories that can be turned into books.
Books based on a true story can expose teens to different cultures and historical events. For instance, reading 'The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas' can introduce teens to the horror of the Holocaust in a more accessible way. It can also encourage teens to learn more about history. And they can provide a sense of connection. When a teen reads a true story, they realize that real people have gone through similar experiences as them, which can be very comforting.
