Read the teenage novel 'Gone' by Michael Grant free online

This was in an email from http://www.lovereading4kids.co.uk.

Link to read the book: http://www.egmont.co.uk/gone/
Available until Oct 31st.

Gripping from the first moment, this is a scary, an unputdownable and a brilliantly plotted fantasy. One minute all the adults are there - next they're gone! Only the children remain and they are trapped, cut off from the outside world and, scarily, left to rule themselves. Can they survive? With no guidance, gangs start to form. Danger lurks at every corner and everyone has to make a choice – to be cruel or humane. It’s a chilling prospect and the new world order is scary for all. It's Lord of the Flies for the Heroes generation with just a dash of the X-Men thrown in for good measure.



(Prefer a real book myself, but don't know- maybe teenagers are getting more into online reading... and it's a good way to encourage them, if they're not very keen on picking up a book! :) )
