Micah (sinvega) | 14 comments I absolutely love this book. I have never read Hunger games(but i am a huge fan of the movies) but my friend has and she said that The Culling by Steven Dos Santos is probably the best book to rival Hunger games which is her favorite.

I absolutely think you guys should give it a read and I would love to discuss it with you.

I love the characters(Lucky, Digory, and Cassius) as well as the secondary characters. It certainly is a great book full of action, psychological horror, character development, heartbreak and angst.

Very well written!

be sure to add it to your reading list :)

Book Summary
Recruitment Day is here...if you fail, a loved one will die...

For Lucian “Lucky” Spark, Recruitment Day means the Establishment, a totalitarian government, will force him to become one of five Recruits competing to join the ruthless Imposer task force. Each Recruit participates in increasingly difficult and violent military training for a chance to advance to the next level. Those who fail must choose an “Incentive”—a family member—to be brutally killed. If Lucky fails, he’ll have to choose death for his only living relative: Cole, his four-year-old brother.

Lucky will do everything he can to keep his brother alive, even if it means sacrificing the lives of other Recruits’ loved ones. What Lucky isn’t prepared for is his undeniable attraction to the handsome, rebellious Digory Tycho. While Lucky and Digory train together, their relationship grows. But daring to care for another Recruit in a world where love is used as the ultimate weapon is extremely dangerous. As Lucky soon learns, the consequences can be deadly...
