Annotation: Over 50 years ago, before anyone had ever heard of The Hunger Games, Robert Heinlein wrote this novel about teens fighting for their lives on a hostile planet. 
Booktalk: It started out as a final exam for a high school class, a 5 to 10-day survival test on an unknown planet. After the test, everyone’s supposed to walk through the portal and travel safely back to Earth. Only it’s been way over ten days and the portal refuses to open. And people are still being attacked.
