Summary: Terrific thriller & andventure story!!!
Review: This story is one I'd recommend to anyone and everyone who is in search of a good book. I couldn't put down this adventure story at all. The best thing about this book is the suspence and detail that Gary Paulsen used to make you feel as if you were right there, looking into the same cave, the same lake, and the same woods as Brian did for so long. It also made me realize that I wouldn't have been able to survive if I were in Brian's place, I would have no clue. By reading this book, it has widened my knowledge toward the wilderness and how we take advantage of it. "HATCHET" is a good book, and I now know some things to do in the wilderness if I were in that position!

Summary: Amateurish and Episodic
Review: This book flat-out stinks. It reads as if it were dashed off during the commercials in an afternoon of TV watching.
