Is this worth reading? the start seems bad :-( I also see low ratings, so maybe I am right?
Mary Not worth reading.Very disappointing. I agree with the other posters -- I doubt Patterson even read this one, let alone wrote it.

Is this one of his YA books (like Daniel X or Maximum Ride)? The goodreads reviews make it sound like the writing is juvenile, but I'm curious about the appropriateness for a 13 y.o. Thanks!
Cavak I wouldn't say the writing is juvenile. More like generic sci-fi action film, maybe one that you would see in the '80s or '90s.

What makes it seem like YA is that every chapter has to have a suspenseful cliffhanger moment before it ends, the overall avoidance of deep philosophical questions for the sci-fi elements, and the handful of one-dimensional characters that get at least a moment of focus.

There's death, violence, torture, drug abuse, racism (though a sci-fi variation of it), mentions of suicide, and detailed descriptions of emaciation. So I would say it's up to you if you think it would be appropriate for a 13-year-old.(less)
