Description

The fifth book in the bestselling Gone series by Michael Grant continues the page-turning saga of Sam, Astrid, and Drake in their terrifying post-apocalyptic world.

It's been one year since all the adults disappeared. Gone.

Despite the hunger, despite the lies, even despite the plague, the kids of Perdido Beach are determined to survive. Creeping into the tenuous new world they've built, though, is the worst incarnation yet of the enemy known as the Darkness: fear.

Within the FAYZ, life breaks down while the Darkness takes over—turning the dome-world of the FAYZ entirely black. A will to survive and a desire to take care of those they love endure in this ravaged band, even in the bleakest moments. But in darkness, the worst fears of all emerge, and the cruelest of intentions are carried out. After so many months, is all about to be lost in the FAYZ?

“Fans can count on more excellent storytelling, multidimensional characters who continue to develop in unexpected ways, and some mighty find eye-popping moments.” —VOYA (starred review)

    This book truly was a delight through the whole reading. The descriptive imagery puts you in the character's shoes, feeling their struggles, their joy, and their pain. Honestly one of the best books in the series.
  • Best books ever!!

    I have read all of the Gone books with amazing satisfaction! Each one is better then the last! I cannot wait for Light to come out. These are the kind of books that I read in class and ignore my teachers completely, the kind that you stay up till the early hours of the day just to see what happens next, the kind that you can't put down until you finish! With such vivid descriptions, and intense details I literally felt like I was surviving the FAYZ with my friends Sam, edilio, astrid, Caine (not a close friend), and everyone! The fight for survival isn't over and I cannot wait to see what happens next!

    Exciting book, but definitely not middle school age appropriate. Content included drugs, alcohol, sex, pregnancy, and murder.
  • This series has no flaws!

    Not only is this dude a good writer but the the plots of his story's are freaking amazing I really believe that Mr. Grant is one of the best Horror-Distopian Teen book writers out there he's really creative and always keeps me guessing. This is probably my second favorite maybe my first favorite book in the Gone series because this one is just so dang creative. the mysterious developments in little Pete's...... something.... maybe his spirt or essence are great because we are never quite sure how far his abilities reach or what exactly he is now. Also the change in the Dome at the end and the fate of Diana's baby are not ones I suspected( well I actually kinda speculated that the baby was screwed but I never speculated that it would be that screwed) but ya this book is a must read like you SERIOUSLY NEED TO GET IT NOW!!!
  • F*#%ing EPIC

    I've never in my life read a series as good or better then these! My best friend got me hooked to these books a good 8 months ago and I finished them a couple months back. Now I can't wait to hear what happens next with Sam, Astrid and the other kids!
  • The best book since the first one

    In the last 3 months, I have purchased and read all of the Gone books. The first one was simply amazing, and I loved every second of it. The second was fine, a good book all in all. By the third, the formula was rather stale (things bad, Caine do something bad, things look a little better) the fourth book was a smudge better, but still not excellent. Enter this book. First of all, it felt far more original than the last three, and almost as good as the first. It answered several questions-and brought up new ones. I just loved this book, and cannot wait for the final one. If you think the books are going stale and are on the fence about this one, make the leap. You won't regret it.
