The Alliance takes place 18 years after the world as we know it ends. It starts out in what is called "The Valley". The valley is surrounded by mountains, which is why it didn't get any direct biological attacks during the end of the world. The people that live in the valley are captured and taken to a place called Shalev. Shalev is a modernized city that has all the technology that we have today. It is very cleen and crime free. Shalev is one of four city alliances, the alliance's colors are blue and orange, and you can see these colors scattered among the city buildings.Shalev is run by one main person known as the Major. The government implants a chip into the back of your brain to control your thoughts. The atmosphere is good. The people are somewhat happy, but they arent completely free.

 * Caleb Olson //Feed//** //Feed// is placed in a futuristic America. The first part of the book is set on the moon. The mood while they are up there is very tense and dramatic. The government controls everyone through a chip inside their head. It keeps track of everthing from your credits (money) to websites you can get drunk off of. This book takes place in a lot of different places including the mall, wilderness and big party houses. (Caleb, give me more than one sentence for each part. Describe the setting to me as if I were considering buying a house there and you were my real estate agent. ~Mrs. P)

 * Skyler Allen //Among the Hidden// and //Among the Impostors//**

Among the Impostors is a couple of years when he is a couple years older. He got a fake I.D card that says that he is Lee Grant a rich kid and he goes to this school. The school that he goes to has no windows and is just a tall square building he finds out that there is a door that leads outside and he goes out there every time he gets because he hates being locked up and it is very confusing where he is at. He is trying to figure out his clases because no one cares or even bothers to tell him. At first he is picked on and made fun of but then he discovers other Third born children hiding in that place as well and he becomes freinds with them.

The book, The Hunger Games takes place in a place called Panem, in North America sometime in the future. Panem is the country that is said to have risen up out of the ashes of North America. After all the destruction that happened in North America all that was left was Panem,"a shining Capitol ringed by thirteen districts,." Eventually the districts rose up against the Capitol. District 13 was completely destroyed and the other twelve were defeated. As a reminder to the people of the districts that they should not revolt again, the capitol came up with the Hunger Games. At the beginning of the book we meet a girl named Katniss who is 16 years old. She lives in district 12, which is know for mining coal. It is one of the poorest districts and many of the people die of starvation everyday. When Katniss is picked to represent her district in the Hunger Games she travels to the Capitol. The Capitol is this gorgeous city with tall buildings and delicious food. The book mainly takes place in the arena that the Hunger Games are being held. To me it is described slightly as a mixture of different environments. There are trees, but also wasteland, and there is only one lake that we know of right now, but there are also streams. The society seems almost different in every place, but over all the people that run the Capitol or who are in charge are very strict and self-centered i think. If they catch you stealing or doing anything that they think is wrong, or causing uprising, depeding on the district, they will kill you or seriously injure you to make you stop. The Society meaning the people that are in charge are almost hostile and fake. They act like everything is fine and dandy when people are dieing everywhere. Their hostility especially shows because of their invention of the hunger games. Where they send kids from each district to kill eachother. And they say it's a sport. Most of the time the atmosphere seems tense and dreary. There's almost a feeling of no hope at some parts of the book.
