This was another fast-paced adventure continuing the story of Brian from The Hatchet. However this is not going to be appropriate for all middle schoolers. It was much more gruesome than what I remember from the rest of the series... description of 2 people who are killed, maulled and/or eaten by a bear

Well, this was certainly the darkest book in the Hatchet series. It was super exciting for sure, but I wish we had more build up, didn’t really understand why Brian needed to be out in the forest. This book also does a lot of telling not showing towards the end which I didn’t love. Overall, happy to have read all the books in the series! Middle grade is great for some easy reading.
