Summary of this Book...
In the middle of the night, Luke parents are killed and he's kidnapped and wakes in The Institute. He's special needs in a very special way. His room is the same, but there's concrete hallways and a playground, and a old growth forest surrounding the building. Doctors aren't friendly, and there's the front half were there's tests, injections, and the tank, than to the back half where no kid comes out of.
This type of Book is good for...
Thriller/Suspense/genetic engineering

Not for sensitive parents.
I especially liked...
Luke is a tough, likeable kid, and I was rooting for him. Great character.
I didn't like...
The start, it was confusing but made sense closer to the end.
This Book made me feel...
Uncomfortable at times, some crazy stuff happens.
The author of this Book...
Stephen King
King of Horror
I don't recommend this Book because...
There is a lot of children abuse triggers. Beware
