I could theoretically say that this is an interesting take on Hunger games meet Heroes, but really - this is much more than that.Absolutely love how Joshua took a sci-fi, twisted it into almost a romance and a hero-epic.The conflicts just keep hitting you upside your head and Joshua takes the reins of the story, so to speak, and keeps things interesting.It's possible that some people may think that the characters behave somewhat 'unlikely', but to judge how a group of teens would act when raised in their similar circumstances - would be silly.I absolutely love the ease with which Joshua's written work sparked my imagination - I could literally see the whole thing unfold in front of my eyes. I was completely engrossed in the book and I remember Hunger Games - it was good, but it had way more grammatical errors.Plus I don't recall wanting to read that sequel as much as this one.Strong characters, interesting plot, I'm totally looking forward to number two.
