About this ebook
Welcome back to the FAYZ! This is Book 3 in the series that Stephen King calls a “driving, torrential narrative.” It happens in one night: a girl who died now walks among the living, Zil and the Human Crew set fire to Perdido Beach, and amid the flames and smoke, Sam sees the figure of the boy he fears the most. As life in the FAYZ becomes more desperate, no one knows who they can trust. The GONE series is Lord of the Flies for the 21st century. In turns breathtaking, harrowing, and utterly terrifying. Its complex characters and moral dilemmas will delight fans of The Hunger Games, Divergent and The Maze Runner. This is dystopian fiction at its best. Have you read all 6 titles in the New York Times bestselling saga: Gone, Hunger, Lies, Plague, Fear, and Light? “I am now free to leave the FAYZ, but my time there was well spent.” —Stephen King
In a world built on lies, who can Sam trust when the truth might be the most dangerous deception of all?
- Teens with Superpowers: In the FAYZ, every kid under fifteen is trapped. Some have developed terrifying abilities, making them ‘freaks’ hunted by the ruthless Human Crew.
- High-Stakes Survival: With resources dwindling and Perdido Beach in flames, every day is a battle against hunger, fear, and the enemies who were once friends.
- Shocking Twists: A girl who should be dead is walking again, a dangerous prophetess speaks of a way out, and a familiar, terrifying enemy returns to haunt Sam Temple.
- Complex Moral Dilemmas: When the lines between good and evil blur, a single choice can mean the difference between being a hero and becoming the monster you fight.

Great 3rd installment of the Gone series. Wasn't as good as Hunger but still just as interesting and exciting. So tempted to skip to the last book and find out how it ends.

All of the other books are amazing, but this one...not so much. I hate how it went on and on about Mary, but the rest of it was great!

The story felt a little dark and gloomy which was probably the point. The story feels so long yet it only spans to about 1 or 3 days. To me all these books r amazing and I can never seem to find something bad to say about them. Mary's plot thickens more than any of the books before, Sam is feeling restless and scared because of a certain foe who seems to be back and The Council can't seem to agree on anything. This is a story u have to read til the end.

About the author
Michael Grant, author of the Gone series, the Messenger of Fear series, the Magnificent Twelve series, and the Front Lines trilogy, has spent much of his life on the move. Raised in a military family, he attended ten schools in five states, as well as three schools in France. Even as an adult he kept moving, and in fact he became a writer in part because it was one of the few jobs that wouldn’t tie him down. His fondest dream is to spend a year circumnavigating the globe and visiting every continent. Yes, even Antarctica. He lives in California with his wife, Katherine Applegate, with whom he cowrote the wildly popular Animorphs series.
