About this audiobook
Margaret Peterson Haddix
Margaret Peterson Haddix grew up on a farm in Ohio. As a kid, she knew two girls who had the exact same first, middle, and last names and shared the same birthday—only one year apart—and she always thought that was bizarre. As an adult, Haddix worked as a newspaper reporter and copy editor in Indiana before her first book, Running Out of Time, was published. She has since written more than forty books for kids and teens, including the Greystone Secrets series, the Shadow Children series, the Missing series, the Children of Exile series, and lots of stand-alones. Haddix and her husband, Doug, now live in Columbus, Ohio, where they raised their two kids. You can learn more about her at haddixbooks.com.

- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5I don't know why I feel compelled to finish this series out...there's only one more to endure. I guess it's the fact that I've hooked so many kids onto the series this year; it feels wrong to have 3 of these boys 2 books ahead and a line of them ready to get there. It shouldn't be without me, right?
Anyway, I could barely stand this one, but I'm not sure if I've had it with the writing style because it's the 6th one I've read, or if the story sucked...
I didn't get sick of Percy Jackson, though; I became increasingly interested in that story despite reading the lines, "I uncapped Riptide" approximately nine thousand times. No....maybe Haddix just gets annoying after a while. Either way, my students loved this one equally (although they all agree that Imposters was the best) so I can't really give it 1 star. I didn't throw the book, and that says SOMETHING about its worth.
Moving on to what is thankfully the last in the Shadow Children series. - Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5The weakest in the series I think. There was no reason for Matthias to so strongly mourn someone he knew for a day or two and the thought that he and the commanding officer would bond so strongly over someone he barely knew seemed more "convenient" for the author, than logical for the readers.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This is the 6th book of the shadow children books. This book is very interesting. The population police have said that no family gets food unless at least one member works there. When Matthias's friends get hurt he has to join up.Luke and his friends also join up. Will they be able to stop the population police?????
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Great series for young readers.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Good suspense.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5The best place to hide from the Population Police is in The Population Police HQ.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5This book follows Matthias, who, has been forced to join the population police. He's upset about the way things have gone, and afraid to do anything, but when he gets his courage, he stops a plot to uncover all the third children. He discovers he has skills he didn't know he had.
