the fascist japanese government sends 42 kids to do a 'test' for the military. however it is really just a sick games that the japanese leaders play and place best on who will win. it goes through a lot of twists adn turns. it is neat because each kid has a different weapon and you really see the pyschological troubles the kids go through. i HIGHLY suggest that everyone reads it. you wont be dissapointed

I remeber a japanese movie was adapted from this book a few years ago. It seemed pretty violent (not surprisingly). Or maybe the book is anovelisation of the movie ?
