Relation During Books Fear (Gone #5)
It's been one year since all the adults disappeared. Gone.Despite the hunger and the lies, even despite the plague, the kids of Perdido Beach are determined to survive. Creeping into the tenuous new world they've built, though, is perhaps the worst incarnation yet of the enemy known as the Darkness: fear.
Within the FAYZ, life breaks down while the Darkness takes over, literally—turning the dome-world of the FAYZ entirely black. In darkness, the worst fears of all emerge, and the cruelest of intentions are carried out. But even in their darkest moments, the inhabitants of the FAYZ maintain a will to survive and a desire to take care of the others in their ravaged band that endures, no matter what the cost.
Fear, Michael Grant's fifth book in the bestselling dystopian Gone series, will thrill readers . . . even as it terrifies them.

I was a massive fan of the first couple of books in the GONE series, but Grant seems to be running out of ideas. The tension from previous books was completely absent in this one, and it felt like a filler episode of a long-running soap rather than the next instalment in a blockbuster teen book series.The only thing that made this books even vaguely interesting was that things have started to change in the barrier around the FAYZ. You even get to see some events on the other side of the barrier**This review may contain spoilers for the previous four books in the series (and possibly for Fear itself) so tread carefully! If you have not read them please dont read this review but read the first book Gone instead.**Original review can be seen here: http://bookprobereviews.com/?p=1585#m... (NOT ANYMORE!) death is better because death is the end of fear, isnt it? [p.431]Michael Grant has not once disappointed me and Fear is no exception. Fear was the best of the series so far and that is
Wow ok then...A massive 4.5 starsI've always enjoyed Michael Grant's books, but this was something else. His writing in this was intoxicating. The fear felt by his characters seemed so real. I could literally feel (view spoiler)[darkness pushing against me, and causing a wave of claustrophobia, fears i normally do not have. (hide spoiler)] Least to say, i can not wait to start Light.
The book doesn't have 509 pages but in total there are 549 pages and I have finally finished it.I'm shocked but then happy that the dome is clear and the parents and families can see the children and the children can see their parents and families. They finally have hope that it will end soon and they will be let out.Love the last lines of the story how Astrid describes that she was once her parents daughter and they owned her but now she belonged with Sam and Sam was hers and the FAYZ was their
Am I surprised by the events that happen in Fear? Eh, not really. It's the FAYZ.Initial thoughts:1. I've been desensitized by all of the weird and over-the-top scenarios. That's how much weird is in this series, and it's awesome.2. Albert is a big suck. 3. All the characters are finally starting to come into their own. We're starting to see them develop, and show their true colours.4. PETEY, DON'T TOUCH THAT!5. The plot is a bridge to the last book. Lot's of setup to the final show.6. Yay some
There are certain books that, if turned into movies, I would never watch. The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo (which is a movie, actually) is one of them. Rape and torture? Not something I would like to see on the big screen. Fear by Michael Grant is another one of those books. People having their minds ripped apart and their bodies broken and bent and twisted in various ways? Yeah, throwing up is not that high on my list of priorities.Don't get me wrong, I love the Gone series by Michael Grant.
