What is the author's style in Burning for Revenge by John Marsden?

Since the novel is written for young readers, the language tends to be very conversational and easy to follow. The sentences are constructed in a way that is not only easy to follow, but also gain momentum as the reader reads on. The sentences are constructed to entice the reader to turn the next page, and often this structure works. The novel is clearly geared toward modern teenagers and is written in modern teen-speak.
