    This is one of the most compelling and wonderfully vivid books I have ever read. I recommend a read if you have the time.

    this is a timeless classic that can be compared to modern day society and the breaking down of law and moraility. this book teaches you alot about how to survive, when and what battles to fight, and the consequences of going against the tribe, just didn't like the "happy" ending, but what can you do.

    It's a classic and fantastically written. Everyone should read this at some point in their life.

    I read this book in high school. It is a dramatic and haunting novel about human nature.
