This trilogy follows Aiden and Meg from Gordon Korman's On The Run series after they are back home with their parents. Not as good as On The Run but still a great thrill ride!

I really enjoyed this book. It was suggested to me by one of my students and I can easily see why it is so well liked on my campus. This book is quite the quick read and plays out like an action movie. I enjoyed the children characters, Meg and Aiden, but I found the parents to be very unbelievable. This is not a problem for the story though because they are minor characters at best. Abduction is a fun and intense action story for elementary school children.

This book was really grabbing me, but the INSANE amount of backstory crammed into the beginning started to ring some warning bells... Gah, turns out that despite being labeled #1 it's actually a follow-up to another trilogy! These modern kids' series are as bad as comic books with their infinite variations and spin-offs! Seriously, I shelve these books for a living and cannot keep them straight.
