Description
America is at war-and five teens are caught in the crossfire. It began with a virus. Then a series of attacks erupted across the nation. Now the true invasion has begun, and a handful of teenagers with impossible powers are America's only defense. Robison Wells blew readers away with his first novel, Variant, which Publishers Weekly called "a chilling and masterful debut" in a starred review. In Dead Zone, he delivers his most nail-bitingly tense read yet-and an electrifying conclusion to a two-book series that's perfect for fans of The Maze Runner and I Am Number Four. Praise for Blackout "Wells knows how to snare readers' attention and hold them spellbound."-Publishers Weekly (starred review) "In a world where terrorism is an increasing threat, this fast-paced book brings it home."-Kirkus Reviews "This eerie look at an all-too-possible future is tense and gripping."-Michael Grant, New York Times bestselling author of the Gone series
