Because when Jenny and her friends try to play the Game, it comes to life. Suddenly they are in a dark world where Julian, the gorgeous guy who sold Jenny the game, rules as Prince of the Shadows. Julian is in charge, making their darkest nightmares reality. And he will do anything to claim the beautiful Jenny as his prize. The Game is real, and these friends must play through - and the only way to win is to face their most secret fears. To lose the Game is to lose your life. And that is only the beginning..."
När jag började med boken tyckte jag den verkade vara en av de bästa böckerna jag någonsin läst. När jag kom in i boken sjönk dock den känslan lite grann. Boken var fortfarande bra, men jag hade trott att den var bättre. Men The Forbidden Game är helt klart värd att läsa! Serien är mycket spännande då man får följa Jenny och hennes kompisar genom flera mardrömslika spel som Skuggprinsen Julian tvingat in dem i. Böckerna är spännande och på vissa ställen finns det humor. Det är mycket fart i dem och engelskan är lättläst.

Första stycket av "The Hunter":
"Jenny glanced back over her shoulder. They were still behind herm on the other side of the street but definitely following. They matched their pace to hers; when she slowed to pretend to look in a store window, they slowed too.
Första stycket av "The Chase":
"It wasn't much the hunting. It was the kill.That was what brought Gordie Wilson out to the Santa Ana foothills on a sunny May morning like this. That was why he was cutting school even though he wasn't he'd get away with forgin his mom's signature on another re-admit. It wasn't the wildflower-splashed hills, the sky blue lupines, or the fragrant purple sage. It was the wet, plopping sound when lead met flesh."
Första stycket av "The Kill":
"The flight attendant started toward them, and the back of Jenny's neck begane to prickle.Her little fingers tingled."
