Great beginning to a series that takes us across an ocean but also into our own backyards. How would we react? Would we survive? With the overpopulation of some countries this could happen, couldn't it? Masterfully crafted characters who seem completely believable. Excellent use of tension. This is a far more believable scenario than in the Gone Series. Not as emotionally draining as a first reading of "Life As We Knew It", but right up there with YA books that will be equally appealing to adults. Hoping to find more of the series available through interlibrary loan. This book is about a group of friends going camping to ‘Hell’ for a couple of days. When they are camping they hear fighter jets flying low overhead. They go back home and nobody is in sight. The friends realize that everybody has been held hostage at the showground. They have to find a way to get their families back, but how? The best thing about this book is that it gets straight to the point and doesn’t drag on. I didn’t like the way this book ended because it doesn’t show how everyone is freed. Then I realised it was the first book in a series. A good place to read this book would be when you are alone, perhaps your bedroom. If this book was a film, I think the actors would be Emma Watson, Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and the other actors from Harry Potter. I give this book a 5-star rating for its excellence.
