"Go Gordon Korman! As in his Everest trilogy, he introduces his characters quickly and throws them headfirst (headlong?) into tension, conflict, and (mis)adventure. I enjoyed recommending this one to one of my stronger readers, and I'm looking forward to finding out what happens next. "

“Holter Graham continues to keep listeners on the edges of their seats. He communicates the fear, growing respect, and trust of the characters as they work for their own and each other’s survival.”
— AudioFile" I loved it! What a great book! "
— Nathan, 2/20/2014" This continues the trilogy. It was good like the first and a fast, easy read full of adventure and twists and turns. Could help a reluctant reader because they are short, but with a middle ground reading level. "
— Liz, 2/17/2014" Here it all comes down to survival. they must do all they can to make it.but when they all work together they build shelter find food and drinking water "
— Mikayli, 2/2/2014" I realy liked it especialy with the twist ending "
— Evan, 1/29/2014" Why am I still reading this series??? I don't usually give up on a book part way through, and I consider this series of 3, one book, so I will read the last one also. Still why to unbelievable premise for me. "
— Lee, 1/28/2014" I cant believe that they are still living after all they have suffered. "
— Erica, 1/28/2014" A fun book for young fans of the survival genre, but readers of this need to be ready to suspend disbelief about some of the things that take place on the island. "
— Erin, 1/7/2014" Way Better than the first one! It was full of danger and action and the cliffhanger, Even though it isn't one of my favorites I still say it is a good story. "
— Kaden, 1/3/2014" Well again fast-paced adventure. I liked this for the most part but found a couple of details beyond my ability to believe. Instantly domesticated wild boars and Americans leaving atom bombs lying around? I DON"T THINK SO! "
— Catherine, 12/2/2013" Enjoyed all these books. Great middle grade (4th-5th) adventure books for boys. Love this author, so it was fun to polish these off like popcorn. "
