This is one unique and adventurous book. What do you get when you throw a group of boys on an island, without any adults, to fend for themselves? Chaos. At first, the boys find it exciting and fun to explore the terrains and live freely without any rules. However, they soon realize that they need rules to maintain order and to survive in this wilderness. The book revolves around the central theme of human impulses toward civilization and toward the will of power. This book is a must-read for the summer, as it explains how mankind must work together to truly survive.

I would recommend this to: 13+
