Review of 'Lord of the Flies' on 'Goodreads'

4 stars

I wasn't expecting such a dark book. I though it was a philosophical story, but no... It is a deep, horror story.

A bunch of kids are stuck in an island with one of the greatest "monsters" ever created.
The writing fits the story perfectly, with the narrator never giving us the real number of kids, the name of "piggy", or why they crashed in the island.
