Publisher Description
The first in New York Times bestselling author Michael Grant's breathtaking dystopian sci-fi saga, Gone is a page-turning thriller that invokes the classic The Lord of the Flies along with the horror of Stephen King.
In the blink of an eye, everyone disappears. Gone. Except for the young. There are teens, but not one single adult. Just as suddenly, there are no phones, no internet, no television. No way to get help. And no way to figure out what's happened.
Hunger threatens. Bullies rule. A sinister creature lurks. Animals are mutating. And the teens themselves are changing, developing new talents—unimaginable, dangerous, deadly powers—that grow stronger by the day.
It's a terrifying new world. Sides are being chosen, a fight is shaping up. Townies against rich kids. Bullies against the weak. Powerful against powerless. And time is running out: on your birthday, you disappear just like everyone else. . . .
“A potent mix of action and thoughtfulness—centered around good and evil, courage and cowardice—renders this a tour de force that will leave readers dazed, disturbed, and utterly breathless.” —ALA Booklist (starred review)

👍
100% recommend, it gets more mythical and sci-fi as the series goes on but to begin with it just seems like more of a mystery book then magical. good writing and an interesting and fairly diverse characters. i have read all of these in around two weeks, which is highly unusual for a dyslexic like me but it was fixating. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Absolutely amazing
Great plot, I loved Edilio and Mary, and Diana is an amazing fictional character. I can’t wait to read more!,
Really good
Really good but stop saying this isn’t for 10 year olds. I’m 10. I’ve already finished the hunger games (I LOVE IT) and twilight (not so much) and I would recommend it for ANYONE!
