I really like this book, its filled with suspense and mystery. It is by far my favorite book!! You need to read it.
Fantastic Book! Luke has never been to school! He is a 3rd child and they are not allowed! Luke is called a "shadow child." Read the adventures of Luke as he discovers that there are more like him! (This is the first book in the Shadow Children sequence.

this book is good but their are some boring parts so I say 4
Why i gave the book among the hidden 5 stars.is that i loved the big mysteries . the one that i loved the most is when , jens dad told luke that jen had died .Another that i liked was when,luke went to jen's house to see if there was anybody in the house (there was). he was also really brave to do that since he is a shadow kid. another thing that i liked was thfat jen's dad was the poulation police . i would recomened this book !
I would give this book five stars because it was awesome. this book among the hidden gave lots of details about what was happening There was surprising parts and obvious parts. In the book, there was scary parts. but what I really like was how there was a big change. but big changes can lead to something bad. something bad like getting killed Other than the killings, it was a very good book.
I chose this book to type a review on because the book was very interesting. Its one of the best books i have ever read. This book is full of suprises like when Luke first went outside in his new neighborhood. Or, when Jen died while trying to attempt the rally. Another reason why I chose this book was because no one was afraid to do anything in this story. That is my review.
cool yet odd
I love the rest of the series
I love the first 2 books. My teacher is reading the 3rd book in class so excited to se how Nina meets Luke again but this time more friendlier.
