Up front: This is a Young Adult novel and is aimed at a younger crowd. However, I'm 64 and still enjoyed it very much.Once I got over the simplistic storytelling style, I found myself engrossed in the story of teenagers stranded in a mountain 'Summer Camp' surrounded by a carnivorous 'Fog' that seems to consume living things that venture into it.The teens are confronted with several challenges to their security that they overcome at the cost of their innocence and the lives of two of their numbers.Toward the end of the story, the leader of the group rises above his age constraints and manages to hold the group together through threats from outsiders and the harsh winter weather.Pretty good read for a YA yarn.
