The stunning conclusion to the riveting Underland Chronicles by Suzanne Collins, New York Times bestselling author of The Hunger Games! Everyone in the Underland has been taking great pains to keep The Prophecy of Time from Gregor. Gregor suspected it says something awful but he never imagined just how awful: It calls for the warrior's death. Now, with an army of rats approaching and his mom and sister still in Regalia, Gregor the warrior must gather up his courage to help defend Regalia and get his family home safely. The entire existence of the Underland is in Gregor's hands, and time is running out. There is a code to be cracked, a mysterious new princess, Gregor's burgeoning dark side, and a war to end all wars. This is the thrilling conclusion to Suzanne Collins's New York Times bestselling middle grade series.

Same reluctant chosen-one boy dragged back underground by prophecy, with found-family bonds instead of the final war's body count, so less bleak.
Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane
Same reluctant boy-warrior, prophecy-driven quest and animal allies from earlier in the series, with lower stakes and less battlefield grief than the finale.

Another prophesied boy hero worn down by being the weapon, but aged up into an enemies-to-lovers slow burn with kissing and snark.
The Heir (The Selection #4)
Another chosen-one teen carrying a kingdom's fate, but swapped war and casualties for palace romance, suitors and a lighter tone.

The One (The Selection #3)
Rebellion violence and a heroine chosen for a nation's future, but far more romance-centered and ending in guaranteed happiness.
