Hunger (Gone Series #2)

Michael Grant

Blurb: 106 hours 29 minutes.

Suddenly it's a world without adults and normal has crashed and burned. When life as you know it ends at 15, everything changes.

An uneasy calm has settled over Perdido Beach. But soon fear explodes into desperation as starvation sets in. For the 'normals' the buck must stop somewhere - with the 'freaks'.

More and more kids are developing strange powers and, just as frighteningly, so are the animals in the FAYZ: swimming bats and deadly worms with razor-sharp teeth are just the beginning. 

And in the background, in an abandoned mineshaft, lies the greatest danger of all - and he too needs to be fed...
