Publisher's Summary:
Omega, they called that day. The end of the end. One enormous burst of electromagnetic radiation and everything that was even remotely electronic was fried to a crisp.
With the country in ruins, the new government declared it the Republic of the True America, imposed martial law, and separated all survivors into settlement camps. Now, 20 years later, three 16-year-olds uncover the dark truth: All this time they've been labeled Less Thans. Feared by society, they're being raised to be hunted for sport. Their only hope for survival is to escape with their friends... or risk certain death. Together they search for the fabled new territory in a heart-pounding flight to freedom, with sadistic hunters and the government's soldiers hot on their trail. Led by the unlikely Book and fearless Hope, these orphaned teens seek a better life, finding the best in themselves to fight the worst in their enemies.

Great new title in YA fiction
What made the experience of listening to The Prey the most enjoyable?
Alternating chapters between the male and female protagonist give you an incredibly well-defined sense of this futuristic dystopian world as well as opens up the story to be understood from various perspectives and sentiments.
What did you like best about this story?
Book's journey with his fellow LTs (a modern day Lost Boys-esque group) is filled with angst towards the unfair hand they were dealt, determination to find a better world for themselves, a goodly amount of fear and the kind of camaraderie that only exists when an unlikely group of fellows are thrown together by circumstances beyond their control.
Was this a book you wanted to listen to all in one sitting?
Yes - I listened to it all in two sittings, and really only put it down because I had to get to a meeting. Definitely keeps you captivated chapter to chapter.
Any additional comments?
Fitting well into the current trend of futuristic dystopian YA novels, this book has all the teen drama of a Hunger Games or Divergent but is layered with deeper themes reminiscent of the tortures of the Holocaust and other callbacks to the darker places of humanity's history.
Give me more!!
The narrators were top notch. The story had me from the beginning. Please tell me their will be a book 2.
A Real Binge Book
Loved it! probably for a younger audience, but it still held my interest! This book had a strong start, conflict, and climax. I thought the ending was a little "Old Hollywood" and left me a little flat. But not so much that I wouldn't recommend this book. There was also some loose ends that I felt got tidied up too quickly at the end. Again, not enough to sour the book. the most memorable part was when both the Sisters and the Less Thans figure out their real roles in this post apocalypse world.
GREAT LISTEN!!!
Highly recommend for any Maze Runner fans. Lots of action, heartache, and overcoming of odds. I was soon engaged in Hope and Book's story. Can't wait to read 2nd book.
Tugged on my emotions. Felt a little too possible.
Wow. I had to write something about this one. I've never done so much talking aloud to an audiobook. The characters are fully human. They defy expectations and, sadly - at times, manage to delve beneath the line of what we would deem acceptable human behavior.
