SUBJECT SEVEN is, unsurprisingly, a fast-paced novel, but the first-person narration is so direct that each page flashes by like rapid fire. The story and dialogue is similar to a comic book, but some of that action is lost in book form. Nonetheless, it’s a taut thriller that can be as violent as The Hunger Games and has a mysterious plot line to raise the suspense level even higher.The plot begins with a bang, and I was as confused as the ‘ordinary’ teenagers who are pulled in Subject Seven’s t...
Personal Responce:I think that ' Subject Seven ' is a really good book. It keeps you where you wanna read more and more there was always something you wanted to know what was going to happen. Like if seven was going to kill his captors or let them keep exparamenting on him. It was really interesting how people can just take things that they created for granite, just to make them better soldiers.Plot Summary:Basically what happened is in the beginning of the book there was 10 subjects each named
What if you were born a scientific mistake? In James Moore’s novel, Seven Subjects, this is exactly what takes place. Seven innocent teenagers with normal teenage lives find themselves becoming destructive. Usually these teenagers would be going to prep rallies, going to see a movie, or even staying out past their curfews. Lately, these teens fall asleep in their homes and wake up in bloody clothes in rich hotels and night clubs, unaware of what’s happening to them. Too confused, these teenager
Subject seven is a Cyborg as far as I can tell. He is extremely violent and quite the BA. Seven is escaping the compound underneath a neighborhood. Seven kills the man who I am assuming is somewhat of a father figure to him because he refers to him as Daddy. I love how every fight is described because it seems to paint a picture. The picture is in all red...specifically blood red. There is a lady named Evelyn Hope is the mother I assume of Seven. He scalped Evelyn. Seven is extremely powerful bu...
Boo, another series book. I thought it was stand-alone. Fooled again.SPOILERSOkay, so I would give this book 2.5 stars, but I'm rounding down because I'm not feeling generous. Oooh, it had so potential. Who exactly am I supposed to rooting for? Surely not Subject Seven, he's a creeper. And all the "failures"? I cannot find any redeemable characteristics in them. I sort of like Tina. If I had to pick one it would be her, I guess. Why in the heck was there so much detail put into all the other "fa...
I just finished the book Subject Seven by James A. Moore. To start off, I want to say this book has a confusing plot line. A private corporation led by Evelyn Hope developed ultimate military weapons; these weapons were housed in the bodies of five teenagers. Subject Seven breaks out of the lab and his mission is to gather the other four that are like him. His ultimate goal is to get a team and destroy their creators, especially Evelyn Hope. If I were to rate this book, I would give it two rati
Subject Seven is a thrilling scientific novel based around the idea of a literal dual personality situation in which two separate beings, humans of different personality and DNA, are trapped within one body. It challenges the idea of one human soul per person and invokes many interesting perspectives on genetic engineering and government research hidden from society’s eyes. It explores the interesting Jekyll and Hyde idea and brings it to life in a terrifying and startling approach- using childr...
Perhaps I'm naive but I was surprised how graphically violent Subject Seven is. I assumed that a book labeled as Young Adult would not rival books marketed to adults in content and description. The main characters are teens, but other than that, I would not consider this a novel for young teens - teens that are almost adults are another matter.The story itself was interesting. I found the multi-personality aspect unique, and after a few pages, I got into the groove of the narrative flashing from...
In a secret compound, several children were artificially created and genetically modified in an experiment known as the Janus Project, until the alpha of their group, Subject Seven, escaped after brutally murdering a top scientist and the guards assigned to him. Subsequently, the remaining youngsters involved in the failed experiment were wiped clean of their memories and given to adoptive parents in various locations throughout the United States. The story continues years later as the five chil...
This was an enjoyable book. After seeing some of the reviews that are available for it, I was worried about how graphically violent the story might read, but to be honest, I didn’t think that the blood shed was difficult to stomach. The concept of the story is unique and interesting, a pleasant combination of the short lived TV show, “Dark Angel” and the ever so infamous novella, “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde”. The characters in this book are searching for answers to questions they would prefer not t...
Okay, I really don't understand why everyone's complaining about how 'violent' Subject Seven was. I really don't remember James A. Moore mentioning blood in most fighting scenes. But hey, I did read this awhile back so could just be my failing memory. And, come on people, they're science-made assassins. Do you really think they're going to be thinking about rainbows and unicorns? It was what they were created to do and I think that's one of the, 'lessons' if you will, that this book stressed: Y
SUBJECT SEVEN is a great sci-fi book that would most definitely make an excellent movie… very Incredible Hulk-ish, with superhuman soldiers hidden within the unassuming bodies of teenagers. The story is a little confusing at first, with a lot of action and bloody violence right out the gate, but all (well most) is soon explained and it is completely worth it. An exciting read, which is sure to entertain male and female readers alike, a nonstop adventure with heart-pumping adrenalin filled grueso...
Seven doesn't remember a lot of things. He knows he doesn't have a family like the Other does. The Other gets to live in a nice house with caring parents who will stop at nothing to protect him. Seven lives in a cold cell where people come to test his strength, reflexes, and pain tolerance. One day Seven is no longer content living in his little cell. He wants out. Seven escapes in a massive riot of bullets and blunt objects, killing anyone who got in his way. Seven is actually the alter-ego of
Subject Seven is a 336-page novel about the escape of Subject Seven from his captors, a group of employees of an unnamed company who perform experiments on select employee's children as a part of the "Janus Project", a project used to create soldiers within the bodies of teenagers. He, being the soldier-like part, is contained within the body of his "Other" Bobby like an alter ego that is active from time to time or as Subject Seven later explains, a Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde type circumstance. Af...
What would you do if you kept waking up with no idea where you were, how you got there or what had happened to you in the meantime? That's what's been happening to 5 unconnected teenagers who once had normal, uneventful lives. But someone out there knows what's happening, and is determined to find answers and change the fate of these seemingly random teens.Subject Seven (the novel) begins with a prologue set 5 years before the actual story takes place. The prologue is a great set-up and foundati...
When I grabbed this book off the shelf, I origanly thought that this book was going to be bad and about a kid trying to fix the world. But I was completly wrong about it 100%. Seven the main charecter of this book woke up in bloody cloths in a cell where continuous days of being abused and stretched. But not remembering how he got there or his family. He thought he was the only one but wrong, there were 6 more but they were put into better homes. Soon after Seven awoke he realized that he was th...
Subject Seven is one creepy dude......This book was intense from the very beginning. I only gave it 3 stars because I couldn't stand the fact that almost every chapter is being told from a different persons point of view. There are 6 different people this book follows, and once you add their counterpart to the mix that makes 12 people. I understand how the author wanted to give us some background on all the "normal teens" first, but dedicating whole chapters to their lives just seemed to be a bi...
A decent book about a group of experimental subjects. They were designed from birth to be "super soldiers," but were deemed a failure because of bleed over from their other side - they were Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hydes. Some of them, while in their darker, more angry side, could recall events and things about their other, nicer side. They were supposed to be terminated, but a scientist couldn't do it, and decided instead to sell them to an adoption agency where most of them lived in quiet isolation
The Jekyl and Hyde concept is what drew me to this YA title, and the unfolding mystery kept my attention. I'm not sure who I sympathize with more--the Failures or the Others. I definitely want to read more.My only real complaint is how it ends. Or rather, doesn't end. I can't even call it a cliffhanger. The story just...stops.
I loved the idea behind this book. I thought it sounded intense, and full of action, but when I read it, it kind of fell flat for me. After reading the book's description, I imagined that I'd get a more in-depth look into Subject Seven's head, but to be honest, even though he was narrating many of the chapters, it still felt like I wasn't in his head at all. Part of that seemed on purpose because of the fact that he was trying so hard to keep his normal counterpart out of his head, but it just m...
