Variant
Benson Fisher thought that a scholarship to Maxfield Academy would be the ticket out of his dead-end life.He was wrong.
Now he’s trapped in a school that’s surrounded by a razor-wire fence. A school where video cameras monitor his every move. Where there are no adults. Where the kids have split into groups in order to survive.
Where breaking the rules equals death.
But when Benson stumbles upon the school’s real secret, he realizes that playing by the rules could spell a fate worse than death, and that escape—his only real hope for survival—may be impossible.
From Good reads
I really liked this book. As I read it I knew that several of the boys at my high school would love it. Girls too, but it just seems as a librarian I am always looking for books to recommend to boys. This book would particularly appeal to some of our male reluctant readers, in my opinion. I'll definitely want to put this book on our next library order. The book ended with a cliffhanger that I was not too happy about. I wanted more of a resolution to the fates of the characters. I will definitely be reading the sequel whenever it comes out.
