About this eBook

Acclaimed author Michael Grant delivers a stunning follow-up to the globally bestselling Gone series—perfect for fans of Stephen King’s suspenseful writing.

It’s been four years since a meteor hit Perdido Beach and everyone disappeared. Everyone, except the kids trapped in the FAYZ—an invisible dome that was created by an alien virus. Inside the FAYZ, animals began to mutate and teens developed dangerous powers. The terrifying new world was plagued with hunger, lies, and fear of the unknown.

Now the dome is gone and meteors are hitting earth with an even deadlier virus. Humans will mutate into monsters and the whole world will be exposed. As some teens begin to morph into heroes, they will find that others have become dangerously out of control . . . and that the world is on the brink of a monstrous battle between good and evil.

“Ratchets up the gore and action, and features a diverse cast of characters. An evocative, intricately plotted companion series.” —ALA Booklist

As a Spin-Off storyline to the original Gone novels, this is easily a very visual tale told in words, one that you can easily tell, with some minor changes, a complete script for one badass Rated-R Teen super-hero movie that might just blow Marvel's films out of the water. References abound, new tales told about characters we already loved and new ones that, admittedly, take a little while to get used to, and imagery that makes me yearn for more. Monster may not be the best book, but it certainly is up there with the best amongst the Gone series. And, with an ending sure to look for more, teasing the return of some fan favorites that could just even the playing-field for a world on fire. Enjoy Monster. For Villain and Hero will most certainly be must-reads.

Very disappointing. The other books drew me in, I got to know and love each character, but this book is very ho-hum and too overboard with the powers for each character. They seemed too look like a 6 yro drawing to a monster come to life, the other books were more realistic if people were to get individual powers.

Amazing not as good as the FAYS though. Suppers powers were too O.P. more realistic powers would have given it 5 stars

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.
