Among the Free is the last book in the Shadow Children series.
It was my favorite in the series. My opinion is that the first
and last books of any series are the best. Anyway, this book
is about a boy Luke/Lee, an illegal third child, finally able
to become free. His first 12 years of life, he was forced to
hide from the Population Police so he could live. The population
law is that a family can't have more than 2 children because
the government thinks if they have less people, they'll have
more food. But with the help of his friends, they try and save
all third children. To try and destroy the Population, he joins
the enemy, he tells people who he is, and puts his life in danger.
