This irresistible novel by Suzanne Collins, New York Times bestselling author of The Hunger Games, tells the story of a boy who embarks on a dangerous quest in order to fulfill his destiny -- and find his father -- in a strange world beneath New York City. When Gregor falls through a grate in the laundry room of his apartment building, he hurtles into the dark Underland, where spiders, rats, cockroaches coexist uneasily with humans. This world is on the brink of war, and Gregor's arrival is no accident. A prophecy foretells that Gregor has a role to play in the Underland's uncertain future. Gregor wants no part of it -- until he realizes it's the only way to solve the mystery of his father's disappearance. Reluctantly, Gregor embarks on a dangerous adventure that will change both him and the Underland forever. This unforgettable novel by Suzanne Collins, the international bestselling author of the Hunger Games series, is rich in suspense and brimming with adventure.

Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane
Direct continuation of the Underland quest, same reluctant prophecy-bound hero and animal allies, with higher stakes and a kidnapped sibling raising the tension.
Gregor and the Code of Claw
The series finale delivers the same prophecy-driven warrior arc, but darker: full-scale war and a prophecy predicting Gregor's own death.
Empire of Storms
Same chosen-one destiny and fierce found-family war plot, but adult-scale epic fantasy with romance and explicit content the middle-grade original lacks.
The Siren
Keeps the lonely-outsider-in-a-hidden-world feel and found family, but trades battlefield violence for a gentle, tragic teen love story.
The Elite (The Selection #2)
Also a reluctant girl pulled into a role she never wanted with deadly stakes, though the focus is palace romance rather than underground quests.
My Witchy Wives
Another ordinary person yanked into a prophesied role in an unending war, but adult, romance-centered and with multiple partners.
