"The Academy" managed to be highly original while also keeping it familiar enough and not distracting. Some books try so hard to be *original* that the story line gets lost in that goal.The main character, Asa, has had a hard life. His parents died from the Wolf Flu leaving him an orphan.Then The Academy kidnaps him! He can barely survive the surgical alterations and the forced competitions with his classmates who were abducted the same time he was.As bad as all that is, everything takes a turn for the worse when The Academy's TRUE intentions start to surface.Great pace, characters, and story line! The ending will keep you on the edge of your seat waiting for the next installment.
