About this ebook

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

Ratings and reviews

I really enjoyed this book, it is thrilling and scary and funny, it made me laugh and cry and really think about things. I love the Gone series overall and I can't wait for the next book!

I really enjoyed this book-there's an amazing storyline but there are some really gory bits for people who like that sort of thing. I would recommend reading the rest of the series beforehand to fully understand this, though.

I've read the whole series up to this point. I feel I can really relate to the books. I love them, I imaginged everything perfectly, I was pretty much in the book.part of the book. I guess I can relate to it seeing as my name is sam ( Sam Temple/bright hands from the book) it was amazing to read, can't wait to get my hands on the next one! Eldido and sam are just the best in the book!!:)

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.

He lives in California with his wife, Katherine Applegate, with whom he cowrote the wildly popular Animorphs series.
