Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane

I'm still into this series. Collins is so great at exploring the ambiguities and complexities of war. This is less graphic and perhaps less overtly political than the Hunger Games, but no less complex. I'd especially recommend it to kids who want to read Hunger Games but are really too young for it, or for fans of Warriors or other talking animal warrior-type books.

But also for adults.

Short review: another fun, quick young adult fantasy audiobook to pass away the time while doing data processing work. The one interesting twist is what happens when Gregor doesn't do what is expected (or what he is told) but things work out anyway. There are consequense to be faced by those that don't know his reasoning. Interesting twist.
