This series is in the young adult fiction area,,even though I would never let my young adult child read it. This story is a modern version of "Lord of the Flies". Everyone over the age of 14 disappears. Then a shield blocks these children left into a small section of the earth. The children have to fight for survival. The plot sounded very interesting to me. I sometimes really like Sci-Fi but....this series I could not finish. I did read all of "Gone" and over half of "Hunger". But the violence in this book finally got to me. I just could not get past the evil of such little children. SO I have to give it a thumb's down, and don't let your kids read it. It is just too graphic, not uplifting.
