Neptune's Children Audiobook (Unabridged)

" This book is kind of a toned down version of Lord of the Flies. A bioengineered plague is let loose and only children survive. The particular group of children were at a fun park when the plague hits. The story is about how the kid organize themselves and move on after their parents and older siblings all die. It is an interesting idea for a story. I enjoyed the descriptions of the fun park. Overall I thought that the story line was a little lacking in some places, but overall a good read. "

" another one of those depressing end of the world books ive been reading....not as depressing as the dead and gone though "

" It's okay. I haven't gotten very far into it yet, but it seems like a good read. "

" Lord of the Flies on a much larger scale. I was vaguely disturbed by this book, but I still managed to enjoy it. I think Josabry might find it interesting. "

" an adventure that will take your breath away "

" A captivating and eye-opening story. Trully shows the depths of humanity--both good and bad--through the eyes of young adults. "

" While this is a book aimed at a young adult audience I really enjoyed it. Maybe I'm going into my second, third, fourth... childhood. The story drew me in. The characters were well developed. and the action moved the story along. Kudos to Ms. Dobkin. "

" This is so much like Gone (with more than a little Kingdom Keepers thrown in) that it's just a disappointing re-read. This time, it's a plague that wipes out the adults, but the same tired plot is being recycled. I have no idea why this particular genre is getting play, but please, enough. "

" This was a little Lord-of-the-Flies-esque. Things always seem fun in the beginning with no rules, but then things fall apart. Interesting take on a kid-ruled world. "

" I was impressed by Neptune's Children. At first blush, it looked to be merely an updating of Lord of the Flies; and perhaps it is. But I enjoyed this one infinitely more than William Golding's work. "

" A bit spooky,scary all the same it was a really good book "

" I would have rated this a 3 1/2 if I could have. Interesting premise and plot, but too much swearing. "

" Entertaining and creative, if very predictable. Definitely a wonderful read for younger readers. "

" awesome...beginning is sad though. NO THIS WILL CONTAIN NO SPOILERS but can I say that it tacks a big twist? I didn't even see it coming. But everything made sense and I wondered why I didn't notice it before. So my advice to you is: READ THIS BOOK but expect the unexpected "

" Loved the audio for this book "

" It was intence. After reading this book i kept think about what i would do in different situations if this happend to me. Hopefully it won't but it never hurts to just think about it. Totally worth reading. "

" I LOVED THIS BOOK!!IT WAS AMAZING!!IT HAD GREAT DESCRIBTIVE DETAILS!!ITS A SHAME IT DIDNT HAVE A SEQUAL OR WAS MADE INTO A MOVIE!! "

" Ok so tried and true Lord of the flies...GONE was much better, but this would be easier for younger tweens :) "

" I am not crazy about the reader's voices she uses for each person. I think I might have preferred a male voice, all that aside it was a good little story. "
