Plague (Gone, 4)

Plague, Michael Grant's fourth book in the bestselling Gone series, will satisfy dystopian fans of all ages.

It's been eight months since all the adults disappeared. Gone.

They've survived hunger. They've survived lies. But the stakes keep rising, and the dystopian horror keeps building. Yet despite the simmering unrest left behind by so many battles, power struggles, and angry divides, there is a momentary calm in Perdido Beach.

But enemies in the FAYZ don't just fade away, and in the quiet, deadly things are stirring, mutating, and finding their way free. The Darkness has found its way into the mind of its Nemesis at last and is controlling it through a haze of delirium and confusion. A highly contagious, fatal illness spreads at an alarming rate. Sinister, predatory insects terrorize Perdido Beach. And Sam, Astrid, Diana, and Caine are plagued by a growing doubt that they'll escape—or even survive—life in the FAYZ. With so much turmoil surrounding them, what desperate choices will they make when it comes to saving themselves and those they love? 

“Grant’s sf-fantasy thrillers continue to be the very definition of a page-turner.” —ALA Booklist

One of the better books in the series. You can start to see the light at the end of the tunnel for these kids.

This one didn't grab my attention as much as the previous 3, but it was still great! The fight scenes were top notch, the characters developed (some of them by doing fairly insane things) and while the ending wasn't as shocking as the other books endings, it was interesting at least...
