I think the story was the most exiting book I've ever read because of all the fights with animals. Brian even broke his ribs fighting a bear. The book is good. Hatchet is a part of a series. The other books are The River, The Winter, and Brian's Return.
You will like this book if you like mystery, excitement, and action, especially action.
