In the months since Gregor first encountered the strange Underland beneath New York City, he’s sworn he won’t ever go back. But when another prophecy, this time about an ominous white rat known as the Bane, calls for Gregor’s help, the Underlanders know the only way they can get his attention is through his little sister, Boots. Now Gregor’s quest reunites him with his bat, Ares, the rebellious princess Luxa, and new allies and sends them through the dangerous and deadly Waterway in search of the Bane. Then Gregor must face the possibility of his greatest loss yet, and make life and death choices that will determine the future of the Underland.

Ratings and reviews

A good continuation of the first book. I never find a dull moment in her writings, however, I feel the book ends with the reader asking unanswered questions. I feel certain plot points of the story were being foreshadowed only to never have any relevance. Besides this, it is as good as the first.

It was amazing keep up the good work and I also love number1

best book ever
