This harrowing tale of supernatural suspense kicks off a new series from the visionary mind of #1 New York Times bestselling author Scott Westerfeld.
When a plane crash-lands in the arctic, eight young survivors step from the wreckage expecting to see nothing but ice and snow. Instead they find themselves lost in a strange jungle with no way to get home and little hope of rescue.
Food is running out. Water is scarce. And the jungle is full of threats unlike anything the survivors have ever seen before--from razor-beaked shredder birds to carnivorous vines and much, much worse.
With danger at every turn, these eight kids must learn to work together to survive. But cliques and rivalries threaten to tear them apart. And not everyone will make it out of the jungle alive.

It's a good book it's about people on a plane that crash, but someone doesn't survive so they had to stay on the crashed plane until someone rescues them . The End
You should read the next book
I gets interesting
I read it and I loved it!!!!
My 8 year old picked up book 1 at a Scholastic book fair at school in October. He was hooked! He just finished book 5. Wish there was a movie or mini series. Maybe Amazon could do it.
I love the whole series! It feels like it is a sci-fi version of hatchet.
I really love books where kids get stranded alone and must survive and possibly die. I have a problem
try out the other horizon books
i love the book series
it is slow but interesting I do not recommend 5 grade
omg same
