![]() "The woods are lovely, dark and deep… " Frost tells us. There is nothing scary in this volume, but why would the reader be scared if no else in this book seems to be worried about what's out there? Everyone has been transported by some unknown force to another planet, they don't know where the rest of civilization is, and there's some kind of monster out there that's already killed one of the students (not a spoiler, happens at the very start), and all these kids are worried about is the stink the backed-up toilets are creating!? The faculty is worried about one of the student council members taking charge and making them look bad so they go into militant mode, creating a bully-system security detail. Six students decide to follow the arrow into the woods to see if they can discover the reason why they've been transported, while the rest of the students and faculty stay behind and grapple with more pressing issues such as no water and backed up toilets.Īnd that's what the biggest problem is for me. The students and faculty find themselves transported to what appears to be another planet. ![]() Some kind of arrow unearths itself next to a high school. There's lots of little problems with the structure of the book that keep popping up and once that happens, it's a little hard to enjoy the story for what it is. ![]()
