Gregor the Overlander

Gregor is a regular boy who lives in New York City.  He falls through a hole with his little sister and ends up underground where creatures of the night like bats, rats, and cockroaches are as big as humans and can talk!  There is a magnificent city of humans as well and they decide that Gregor is the warrior of their prophecies.  

These books are very exciting and Susan Collins does a great job of creating interesting characters and plot twists.  However, the main plot in the books is about a war between the humans and the rats, which can be a bit scary and sad.  I personally enjoy books that can make me feel many emotions.  I couldn't put them down.
