Take the ancient Greek myth of Crete demanding Athens send 14 of its children as sacrificial tributes, substitute the minotaur for gladiator combat pitting the youths against one another, set it in a dystopic future, make it all entertainment for the reality television of a tyrannical government, you get this story. Impressive world-building, breathtaking action and clear philosophical concerns. Reminds me of the "Uglies."

The monster's lair is the site of the Twin Towers and, of course, the monster is a foreigner that comes to destroy our country. A vampire palate cleanser!
