More About This Book

Overview

Seven days, seven challenges. Twelve strangers. Eight thousand cameras. Only one winner.

Welcome to The Ant Farm, a social study in the wilds of interior Alaska, documenting the dynamics between a dozen competitors as they take part in a series of physical and psychological face-offs. With five hundred grand up for grabs at the end of the battle royal, the stakes are high and the tension blazing.

Could the seemingly mild-mannered nice guy win it all? The cutthroat alpha female? The strongest or the smartest, the idealist or the cynic? It's anyone's guess as teams are undercut by alliances, loyalties tendered and tested, and passions enflamed by both affection and animosity.

In this contest where even knives and guns are fair game, sex may prove the most dangerous weapon of all.

Reader Advisory: This book features the recreational use of illicit substances, and non-explicit references to childhood abuse and trauma. It also features an unlikely mix of romance, lust and hate-sex, plus a ton of way crazier crap that the author delights in not preparing you for.

    3.5 stars. "Survivor" meets "MILF Island"? M

    3.5 stars. "Survivor" meets "MILF Island"? McKenna's characters are always varied and fully realized, her writing naturalistic and compelling. This book is stronger as a series of character studies than as an adventure thriller, since so much of the intriguing background is left unplumbed. Even so, McKenna fans will find SKIN GAME a strong and worthwhile read. Stupid cover art, though, and the title is a cheap play on words that doesn't adequately represent or sell the story; silly Ellora's Cave.
