Story
Fifty years ago, the Earth died. The Earth is now a fertile but dangerous jungle world. Wildlife has prospered, although often in oddly altered forms. Survivors live in underground shelters waiting generations for the environment to become safe enough to emerge. Above ground, the radiation and poison has mutated the few humans that are left, but they do their best to survive for the 20 to 22 years they might live before the toxic planet or disease kills them.

It's just a small story really, about, among other things, a girl, some words, an accordionist, some fanatical Germans, a Jewish fist-fighter, and quite a lot of thievery. Set during World War II in Germany, Markus Zusak's groundbreaking new novel is the story of Liesel Meminger, a foster girl living outside of Munich. Liesel scratches out a meager existence for herself by stealing when she encounters something she can't resist: books.

This is how wars are fought now by children, hopped up on drugs, and wielding AK-47s. In the more than fifty violent conflicts going on worldwide, it is estimated that there are some 300,000 child soldiers. Ishmael Beah used to be one of them. How does one become a killer? How does one stop? Child soldiers have been profiled by journalists, and novelists have struggled to imagine their lives. But it is rare to find a first-person account from someone who endured this hell and survived.

Danny Boyle and the Underland
Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?
Because I read the second book first, I would recommend this book, The second book was more for a younger audience than this The slight, brief violence with the Mother was more extreme than I would feel comfortable sharing with little ears.
If you’ve listened to books by William Graham before, how does this one compare?
The second book in the series is my favorite of the two. This book had shocking moments. But I loved the relationship between the three young friends.
I think William Graham is a wonderful children's author, but was this book meant for MG?
The narrator was excellent.
I'm enjoying the new, unexplored realms Mr. Graham spins. This is not an "underworld" book, but a real 'normal' world under our own. Unlike Jules Verne's version, yet unlike mythical beings.
I like how his books stand apart from the same stories bombarding the shelves.
Which scene was your favorite?
Several, mostly centered around Melinda. When she was outspoken and said, "I don't have to do anything I don't want to. You aren't the boss of me!" How many of us have heard that? I loved it!
Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?
When out defiant Melinda shared her belief her brother would find and rescue her. Sibling rivalry rivals not the devotion between the two.
Any additional comments?

young adults would love losing themselves in
Danny Boyle is a twelve-year-old adventurer with an imagination that knows no bounds. His uncle reveals some of his hometowns secrets – a group of people banished, houses falling into huge sink holes and more! Together with his best friend, Chip and Danny’s younger sister, Melinda the three trudge up to the caves and set out to find the banished people.
From there the adventure begins! They solve the mystery of the sink holes swallowing up houses, must fight a huge water creature that lurks beneath the black waters and escape from the Underlands! Held prisoner they must find a way to get back topside and reunite with their family. The Underlands are different and unpredictable so the children must be smart!
A delightful child’s book that is entertaining and whimsical. A well written story that is neither rushed nor slow. William Graham, author, does an excellent job of choosing words that are vivid and rich in imagery and that also invoke the listeners imagination as well. Characters are fully developed and engaging.
The narrator, Beth Bostic did an excellent job with the voices and projecting the emotions appropriate for the action. Bostic spoke clearly and confidently, gifted as a narrator she furthered the engagement of the listeners with the characters and story. I enjoyed her reading very much and look forward to hearing more from her.
This is a story that most pre-teens and young adults would love losing themselves in.
There were no issues with production of this book, it was clear.

A must buy
I was gifted this audio ARC for a honest and unbiased review from the author/narrator.
William Graham has outdid himself once again. Any preteen would love to listen to this book. A well written story with well chosen words that are rich and also vivid that invoke The listener's imagination.
Beth Bostic did an excellent job with the voices and spoke clearly and confidently.
This is another must for YA

Sweet
I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.
Danny Boyle, accompanied by his friend and his sister, is a twelve year old adventurer, investigating the houses that are disappearing. This was a really sweet novel, with brilliant interaction between Danny and his sister Melinda. It really captured the sibling rivalry and love and I really liked that.
