Publisher Description
Sixteen-year-old Robert lies anaesthetized. A routine operation has just gone wrong.
'What the hell is that?'
'That, Mr Ryan, is the inside of this boy.'
'Christ . . . It looks like some kind of plastic.'
As Robert slowly wakes, he can hear, he can feel, but he can't scream. The operation isn't over. But life, as Robert knows it, is.
Robert goes on the run, terrified and desperate for answers. But what if the answers are too terrifying to face?
This is Kevin Brooks at his very best – powerful, intense, page-turning reading for teenage readers and beyond.
Customer Reviews
Love
There are honestly no words for how much I adore Kevin brooks he is amazing! The way he writes truly pulls you into his world .. His mind. His way of thinking a true artist with how he writes he wants you to feel the characters emotions not just observe. Definitely worth a read !
Being....What?
What a let down... I have enjoyed reading Kevin Brooks, toughly enjoyed I-boy, but this one left me cold. Started out well, was really intrigued to find out about Robert, but felt it dragged on for no particular reason, won't say too much as it may spoil the slightly uneventful ending!
Best book in the world
It is an easy read but not infidel in any way. I have read most of Kevin brooks books and this was by far the best. It literally and I mean literally got me gripping onto the paging saying tell me more, tell me more.I loved it. Great ending but in some ways mysterious, shame you don't get to find out what he is though. Oppps sorry I spoilt the ending but the thing is if your reading this book to find out what he is then don't. Because you will get over excited until you get let down, like me. However apart from that I would read it 100 times over. I'm thirteen years old and I even got my to read it and she is 40.it is so addicting that I couldn't leave it alone. I read this book in a day and it has 400 pages. You can imagine how addicting it is. If I could I would rate this book 10 out of 5, great book....
