Lies

Welcome back to the FAYZ! This is Book 3 in the series that Stephen King calls a “driving, torrential narrative.” It happens in one night: a girl who died now walks among the living, Zil and the Human Crew set fire to Perdido Beach, and amid the flames and smoke, Sam sees the figure of the boy he fears the most. As life in the FAYZ becomes more desperate, no one knows who they can trust. The GONE series is Lord of the Flies for the 21st century. In turns breathtaking, harrowing, and utterly terrifying. Its complex characters and moral dilemmas will delight fans of The Hunger Games, Divergent and The Maze Runner. This is dystopian fiction at its best. Have you read all 6 titles in the New York Times bestselling saga: Gone, Hunger, Lies, Plague, Fear, and Light? “I am now free to leave the FAYZ, but my time there was well spent.” —Stephen King

In a world built on lies, who can Sam trust when the truth might be the most dangerous deception of all?

• Teens with Superpowers: In the FAYZ, every kid under fifteen is trapped. Some have developed terrifying abilities, making them ‘freaks’ hunted by the ruthless Human Crew.
• High-Stakes Survival: With resources dwindling and Perdido Beach in flames, every day is a battle against hunger, fear, and the enemies who were once friends.
• Shocking Twists: A girl who should be dead is walking again, a dangerous prophetess speaks of a way out, and a familiar, terrifying enemy returns to haunt Sam Temple.
• Complex Moral Dilemmas: When the lines between good and evil blur, a single choice can mean the difference between being a hero and becoming the monster you fight.
