Phoenix Island by John Dixon

"Good morning, orphans."
"Hooah!"
This was a disturbing and violent story. The author did not go lightly with the idea of the boot camp and the brutal tactic used to try to reform these kids. As the entire story slowly spiraled into complete madness, it was almost hard to read.
I will definitely read book 2. For as violent and scary as the story line was, it wasn't completely unrealistic either. There are a lot of "boot camps" off US soil that we have no idea what happens there.
