I would describe this book as suspenseful, futuristic, and just a perfect book for anyone!The Last Book in the Universe by Rodman Philbrick is a book far in a possible future, a thousand years after the great "shake". There are genetically engineered people who are designed for health and intelligence and live in a special lush area called Eden. Everyone else lives under grey skies, in a concrete world, trying to get by. Gangs control areas and it is deadly to cross the leader of the your boss or to cross into another zone. No health care, care for orphans, etc. This is about a guy that gets word his foster sister is dying and he wants to see her one last time. The trip ends up with a orphan boy, an old man, an enhanced girl, and himself crossing many zones. Lots of suspense and action. A very terrifying look at what life could be like but with a glimmer of hope too.

The three words I would describe this book is action-packed,futuristic,and page-turner.This book was about a boy trying to save his sister and all these terrifying adventures to get there when he got there she was sick. Close to the end they saved his sister.Yes I recommend this book!
