Review Detail

In Hunger, the stakes are higher, the fear deepens, the drama is more dramatic, freaky occurrences are happening more often and the food slowly starts to run out. This book is very disturbing, especially the part when the kids inside the FAYZ, get so desperate, they eat the remains of their fallen comrades.

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

food ran out weeks ago and starvation is imminent. Meanwhile, the normal teens have grown resentful of the kids with powers. And when an unthinkable tragedy occurs, chaos descends upon the town. There is no longer right and wrong. Each kid is out for himself and even the good ones turn murderous.

But a larger problem looms. The Darkness, a sinister creature that has lived buried deep in the hills, begins calling to some of the teens in the FAYZ. Calling to them, guiding them, manipulating them.

The Darkness has awakened. And it is hungry.

I think that in this book, the characters start to develop their true nature, as their are no adults keeping the beasts inside them contained. Like how Caine becomes power hungry, and Sam starts to collapse under the pressure of being leader.

I loved this book, as well as all the other Gone novels, and I think they deserve a round of applause. And by reading this novel, you can be prepared if this really happens.
