Like the Hunger Games series? Then you'll love ''Man Hunt'' When Alice awakes in a small, bare room with nothing more than a letter, a backpack, a change of clothes and some survival gear, she doesn't know what to expect. She has no recollection of how she got to where she is, or even where she is and she can't help but feel frightened about the whole situation. According to the letter addressed to her name, her parents signed her up for a new televised game show in which twelve teenagers will be split into two equal teams. The teenagers will then take part in a slightly modified version of a childhood game they are all quite familiar with for the chance to win a sum of €1,000,000 for every member of the winning team. When Alice meets the rest of her group, they soon realise that they are stranded on an island and they have no other option but to cooperate. They quickly find the instructions and map their team has been supplied with and are forced to begin a game which they fear is darker than it may seem. The twelve teenagers can't be any more different, however they must push their divergence aside and hope that they have what it takes to win the game and return home with the money that could change their lives forever. In a tale of adventure, action and deceit; do Alice and her team have what it takes to leave the island as champions or is there a more sinister fate in store for them? Is this really just a game as their letters describe, or are there darker forces at work behind closed doors?

I thought about the odds now. Maybe they weren't so great, but after all I had been through, I knew something had to be in my favor. Noah Albedo was perfectly fine with her life, avoiding the people she didn't like, spending time with the people she did. But her entire future is derailed when her name is called at the Reaping Ceremony. Now she'll have to face an unforgiving arena, a sadistic district partner, twenty-two other teenagers and cameras surrounding her at all times as she enters the 25th Hunger Games. Oh the odds.

(Book 3 of "The Four" series) (NOT EDITED AT ALL) (LOTS OF GRAMMAR ERRORS) (I was young when I wrote this lol) They thought they were going to ruin the world. They thought the war would go on until both sides were illuminated. But it just so happens the world they live in isn't what they thought it was. Now Paytah, Aira, Juris and Lana must find out why everyone else is different from them, and why Hanson put them and all the other elements through this. The test they went through was just a warmup, because the real test has just begun. Half the world thinks the government should be punished for doing this to them, while the other half wants them dead, gone, forgotten. Will the four teens survive when half the world wants them dead? Or will they fail trying to take on the real world?

Lana, Paytah, Aira, and Juris have passed the test, although now the world hates them. Everyone wants them dead. Well, some do. Some don't. These four teens have caused the US to split into two groups, ones that want the elements together, and those that don't. The teens are preparing for war, but struggle to find out what Hanson is exactly doing, and why he is letting the world split apart. They find out that this test may not be over. And they also find out they are possibly the key...to everything.
