2013 book 189

Suzanne Collins' Gregor and the Curse of the Warmbloods
Well, it's another Underland book, must be time for Gregor to go on yet another quest to fulfill yet another prophecy, this time to try and cure a plague. I guess that sounds pretty sarcastic about a series I find enjoyable, but there definitely is a formula here. I will say that it's fascinating to find the parts that kind of thematically resonate with the Hunger Games, plus Collins has created a really interesting cast of characters, so my annoyance is pretty minimal. B/B+.
