Gregor and the Code of Claw

In this final chapter of the Underland Chronicles, Gregor is no longer the boy who fell through a grate but a seasoned warrior burdened by a hidden prophecy. With a massive rat army closing in on Regalia and his mother and sister trapped in the city, Gregor must finally confront the full, terrifying weight of the Prophecy of Time. Suzanne Collins masterfully escalates the stakes, weaving together large-scale battles with intimate moments of fear and sacrifice, forcing Gregor to make impossible choices that will determine the fate of two worlds.

Collins delivers a conclusion that is both brutal and emotionally resonant, refusing to shield her young hero—or her readers—from the harsh realities of war and loss. The relentless pace and high-stakes action will grip fans of epic fantasy, while the profound exploration of duty, family, and the cost of violence gives the narrative a lasting depth. This is a powerful, thought-provoking finale that cements Gregor's journey as a defining saga for readers who have grown alongside him.
