Among the Impostors | |
OUT OF HIDING. INTO DANGER.
Luke Garner is an illegal third child. All his life has been spent in hiding. Now, for the first time, Luke is living among others. He has assumed a deceased boy's identity and is attending Hendricks School for Boys, a windowless building with cruel classmates and oblivious teachers. Luke knows he has to blend in, but he lives in constant fear that his behavior will betray him.
Then one day Luke discovers a door to the outside. He knows that beyond the walls of Hendricks lie the secrets he is desperate to uncover. What he doesn't know is whom he can trust -- and where the answers to his questions may lead him...
名人推荐From Publishers Weekly
This sequel to Among the Hidden picks up with Luke finally out of hiding and going to boarding school under an assumed identity. "While Haddix is often able to capture the suspense of her earlier work," wrote PW, "this installment gets mired in too many confusing details." Ages 9-14. (Oct.)

网友对Among the Impostors的评论
In the book that I had just finished, it talked a lot about who you can trust, because for all you know, they could be IMPOSTORS.
I hated the words that Jason used sometimes. "Exnay" or "Fonrol", it just made me mad for the people who truly were exnays or fonrols. I have read the first book of the serious too and I absolutely love it. We read "Among the Hidden" in class a couple of months ago and I completely loved this book, words can't describe how much I love it. So, when I got home from school, my mom and I brought up our iPad and we downloaded "Kindle" on there and then downloaded the book, "Among the Impostors" and I read the book with in three to four weeks, at night before I go to bed, is when I read, but finally finished the book a few minutes ago and it was probably one of the best books, I've ever read and I just completely loved it. I keep repeating that I loved the book so much, using the words absolutely and completely because I just can't find the exact word, that I am looking for and I am trying to find the perfect word to use in my book review.
I really liked the book because, it kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time. It used good vocabulary, punctuation and grammar. The book used lots and I mean lots of suspense. And suspense to me is what really makes the book interesting and awesome. Me, personally, I like feeling suspense and feeling like I am going through the same things Luke was and having to make the same decisions and be as confused as he was. And that is why I really loved books like that.
I plan to read the next book and the book after that and the book after that because I feel that they are interesting and are my kind of books. I feel very happy and suspenseful when I read these types of books and the series of "Haddix", it is sort of scary as well. Scary things in books just made me hyper and extremely happy. When I read these certain books I get very emotional at times, if nessaceary. At the scary or suspensful moments of the book, I feel scared for the people in the book and mad or upset at the situations that they are facing and having to go through. I am not a big fan of happily ever after books because I don't want to feel happy when I'm reading, surprisingly, but I want to feel scared or suspensful when I'm reading. I feel the same with my writing. I can't come up with anything to write about, exspept scary or senspenful stories to write about. I know that these books are fictional and I am a big fan of fictional books and I'm happy to read/write about fictional stories and not non-fiction stories because I don't want to learn about true things, like facts. I want to learn about the feelings, thoughts and emotions that the characters are going through or feeling. I don't want to learn about how the government was formed or how certain laws were created, I want to learn about some interesting characteristics etc.
I would recommend this book to people who like suspensful and Intense types of books. Fictional books.
I was introduced to this series through a Middle school reading project. I am over 40 years old however I thought I should read it to communicate with the kids even though I don't teach literature. After reading the extremely engaging first book in the series (Among the Hidden), I did not hesitate to get this one. It did not disappoint.
I have a feeling the author, Margaret Peterson Haddix, is going to get a lot of money from me. :) On to the next one!
It is rare when public school children are exposed to complex topics such as the dangers of big government, environmental regulations, tyranny, food police, population controls, and Big government solutions turning into huge problems. Discussion points also include property rights, strong worth work ethics, and government spying on its own population.
I highly recommend that parents read along with their children so they might both benefit from these books.
A great read for pre-teens and adults alike. The main character Luke, faces life lessons and moral choices are embedded in a highly engaging story that draws the reader into Luke's struggles. There is plenty of room for students to engage in higher level thinking. Questions of honor and compassion are set against a legal structure designed to solve world problems. The wise parent or teacher will see the parallels to current events and history to guide children's ability to think through complex issues. All the while, children will also just have fun reading quality literature about characters that are easy for pre-teens, teens and adults t relate to. This book is second in a series that is well worth reading. To get the most enjoyment, readers will want to read the books in order.
My son began reading this book in his literature class, but they did not finish it. So like any mom who is thrilled that her son LIKES TO READ, I took him to the local library. There was a long waiting list (all the other kids from the same class!), so he convinced me to buy it on kindle. He thoroughly enjoyed it, as well as the others in this series.
Ordered this and the other Shadow Children books for daughter in 5th grade. The books are well written and appropriate for her age. They're darker and more challenging reading than Percy Jackson (which she loved), probably a good step up if the reader doesn't require a lot of action sequences to maintain involvement.
