  1. 1. Among the Hidden is a science fiction piece because fake laws are made up. This happens because of a made up problem that people run out of food, but in reality they could just distrubute it better and everyone would be fine. But wouldn't this mean that it is fantasy, not science fiction?

  5. Stephen,
    I don't think the book would be fantasy because many of the problems are made up, but still have a possiblity of occuring in real life.

  7. It is a science fiction book because many laws are made up that could happen in the future, but are still far off because the US is still a kind of democratic country. it is a possibility we might go totalitarian in a couple hundred of yrs because we might have bad presidents who follow china's example, who alredy have a population law. this novel is even more sci fi because junk food is outlawed. junk food is too good to be outlawed!

  8. Among the Hidden is a scienc fiction novel because there is no population law but it is very realistic and could happen. The story makes you believe that someday it will.

  9. Among the Hidden is a science fiction book because there is population law that does not really exist. However there is a possibility that this could happen especially with the hard economy. The law is made because there isn't enough food. Maybe this will happen because people can't afford food anymore. You never know.

  10. Among the Hidden is a science fiction because of the population law that doesn't exist. With our economy at such a bad place right now, that could soon become a law.
