Light (Gone, 6)

The sixth book in the New York Times bestselling Gone series by Michael Grant is another masterful, arresting depiction of life in the FAYZ.

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

In the time since every person over the age of fourteen disappeared from the town of Perdido Beach, California, countless battles have been fought: battles against hunger and lies and plague, and epic battles of good against evil.

And now, the gaiaphage has been reborn as Diana's malicious mutant daughter, Gaia. Gaia is endlessly hungry for destruction. She yearns to conquer her nemesis, Little Pete, and then bend the entire world to her warped will. As long-standing enemies become allies, secrets are revealed and unexpected sacrifices are made. Will their attempts to save themselves and one another matter in the end, or will the kids of Perdido Beach perish in this final power struggle?

“[T]his book is more than satisfying—it is epic.”—VOYA (starred review)

Great ending to this teen sci-fi series. It's definitely a darker series in many ways than I initially expected. There's some really gruesome deaths. I do think the final battle between the Gaiaphage and Little Pete could have been described in a little more detail (as everything is up to that point had), but it was still a fairly satisfying ending overall.
