This is certainly a page-turner. I found myself drawn into the story rather quickly and somehow, hoping that the faster I read, the faster the main character would walk, hoping he wouldn't get a warning from the guards. This is a tense novel - you begin reading with full knowledge that the contest can end only one way. If you're a fan of the cult movie, "Battle Royale," you'll enjoy this story a lot. And vice-versa.
