This irresistible first novel tells the story of a quiet boy who embarks on a dangerous quest in order to fulfill his destiny -- and find his father -- in a strange world beneath New York City.
When Gregor falls through a grate in the laundry room of his apartment building, he hurtles into the dark Underland, where spiders, rats, cockroaches coexist uneasily with humans. This world is on the brink of war, and Gregor's arrival is no accident. A prophecy foretells that Gregor has a role to play in the Underland's uncertain future. Gregor wants no part of it -- until he realizes it's the only way to solve the mystery of his father's disappearance. Reluctantly, Gregor embarks on a dangerous adventure that will change both him and the Underland forever.

it was a really good book
I decided to read this book series because on my students actually recommended it to me.
If you like Harry Potter or the Hunger Games then you will LOVE this book. Suzanne Collins wrote this before Hunger Games.
These are a higher level read, but certainly worth working towards.
This book, written by the author of the Hunger Games, is very good. It is a pretty short book but it is a great story. For people who finished the Hunger Games series you should definitly read this book by her also.
This is an amazing book! When I was in 3rd grade I did not like to read then my teacher reads Gregor aloud to the class and I realize that a book can set you free. Now I am the biggest reader you will ever meet! Thanks to this series!
