I'm beginning to think of the Gone series as just one 5000-page novel. You need to just keep reading to get to the end to see what shakes out. Stuff happens in each individual volume, but not a lot gets concluded. And so it's on to the next one!

Ooeeh gadverdamme dit boek was echt gruwelijk maar wel echt heeeel leuk.
Another amazing book from Michael Grant!
In Plague, Sam and the other citizens of the FAYZ must figure out a way to deal with new parasites, a plague of flu, and the declination in the amount of water. And at the end of the book, something is going to happen in the FAYZ that has never happened before. Of course, it's not really part of the main event, but it adds even more to the story and makes me want the next book even more.

This book was much better than books 2 and 3. This one finally has a new plot line and some interesting character development.
Whew! This book was intense and brought a lot of new conflict into the FAYZ while still making sure that old conflict grew steadily worse. As usual, the countdown alerted me to the fact that something big was going down. There was a lot more going in here than in Lies, to the point where I finished this in a few hours because I was so anxious to know what happened next.
First I want to get the problems out of the way. I've complained before about how there are too many characters here, but in this book it didn't feel as much of a problem. Grant focused on characters we knew better and finally gave us insight into the mind of the most important character in the series. Another thing I've come to appreciate is how no one is safe. I don't take for granted that the main characters aren't going to die by the end of the book.
There is suffering and more character growth here, not all of it good. I really wish the rules of life and death made a bit more sense here. Just how much power does the gaiaphage have, or Pete for that matter? The strange parasites were horrific but why didn't they show up earlier? Drake is still a threat and even cutting him into pieces doesn't kill him. Albert somehow survives a gunshot to the head. There's a lot here that just feels unfairly balanced, even in the world of the FAYZ.
The conclusion to this book leaves things in a much better place than in previous volumes. Naturally there are still things to resolve, but I don't feel as anxious to read the next book.
