Updated Nov. 2021: I upgraded my original rating to five stars because of the sheer impact this book makes in the series. It's an emotional roller coaster and it's worth every high and low. Plus this book has my favorite Sanjit quote.
****** Original review below:
Fantastic addition to the series! A quick-read but chock full of action and drama with a dark humor that works well. I can't even begin to imagine the parents and world's reaction to the happenings of the FAYZ if the barrier ever goes down. Love that Michael Grant gives us another cliffhanger. Looking forward to Book 5.

Each one is as good as the last, that is a rare thing to find in this genre. can't wait for the next one, it's going to be agony.
This was quite a bit better than Lies but I really think Mr. Grant dropped the ball when it came to Astrid. For some reason I felt very distant from her and her emotions. What she was going through, her guilt about various things, didn't resonate as much as it should have. Her time as leader was too abrupt and not nearly as besieged with tragedy as that of Sam's so I don't quite think she went through things that would lead her to these emotions. But other than that, it was quite good.

In Plague, Grant ups the disturbia factor of the series the main tension being a swarm of human eating bugs that parasitically infect their hosts before eating their way out (spoilers some children die.)
While intensely gross and with some game changing conclusions that would have had big fans of the series shocked, I found the story a little flat. There's something about book 4's in which authors seem to rely entirely on the big series plot to carry a mediocre individual story.

I continue to enjoy this series. I like books with many interesting characters and this series keeps adding more characters that are complex and interesting. I enjoy seeing how they have changed throughout the series and the new ways they interact with each other.
