Gregor the Overlander

Suzanne Collins’ debut novel, Gregor the Overlander, introduces readers to an unforgettable adventure beneath the streets of New York City.

When eleven-year-old Gregor accidentally falls through a grate in his apartment building, he discovers the Underland, a dark and mysterious world where giant spiders, bats, cockroaches, and humans coexist in a fragile balance. This hidden realm teeters on the brink of war, and Gregor's arrival seems to fulfill a long-forgotten prophecy that could determine the Underland's fate.

Though Gregor initially wants nothing more than to return home, he learns that his father's disappearance years ago is connected to this strange world. To find him, Gregor must embrace his role in the prophecy and embark on a perilous journey filled with danger, loyalty, and unexpected friendships.

With heart-pounding action and richly imagined landscapes, Gregor the Overlander is a thrilling start to the five-book Underland Chronicles series, perfect for fans of epic adventures and tales of destiny.
