I listened to this book on cd. It is fairly engaging and enough keeps happening so that I have to keep driving to finish an exciting bit. It is also a Truman nominee. It contains fake swear words like "shuck" which makes them all sound like they're from some areas of Chicago where every sentence includes such vocabulary. It reminded me of the Hunger Games in that many would die, they teens have no control over their environment, but will ultimately succeed only to have to return in the second book. For me, I need more than one girl character. It is a guy book with the bio-machine monsters and weapons and swearing. It was ok. The ending is intriguing enough that I'll try the second book.
