Publisher's Summary

The mind-blowing conclusion to the Monster trilogy and the final installment in the Gone series from science fiction and fantasy master Michael Grant is perfect for superhero and Stephen King fans alike.

After the fall of Perdido Beach dome, a new set of humans developed mutant powers from the rock infected with alien virus. They are the Rockborn Gang: Dekka, Shade, Cruz, Malik, Armo, and Francis. With their superpowers, they have defended the Earth from other rockborn who used their powers for evil, like Dillon Poe.

When another rock carrying the virus strikes New York, a new foe, Bob Markovic, rises with a horrifying and nearly unstoppable ability. Markovic’s unending ambition and lack of a moral compass made him unbearable before the virus. And that was before he was a swarm of plague-ridden insects, with the power and means to take over the city - and maybe the world.

As the Rockborn Gang try to defeat their latest villain, they will find themselves on morally gray grounds and have to make tough decisions if they want to save the world.

In this pulse-pounding finale to the saga more than 10 years in the making, Michael Grant delivers an unforgettable conclusion while asking: What does it take to be a hero?

Terrible ending to a fantastic series. No spoilers

I wish it ended differently. That was a slap in the face to your fans. The book overall felt rushed. There was a huge build up, an almost epic climax cut short with an all too simple conclusion. like the author just wanted the series to end. The power behind the characters completely disappeared and the entirety of the series feels like a complete sham. Id recommend reading the first 6 books. HERO was disappointing and i wish i didnt read it for the sake of my imagination.

Amazing series

Highly recommend this series, so happy Michael chose to keep some beloved characters in the past 3 books. I’m sad to be finishing the series but I know I will definitely re listen in the future. It is worth going through all 9 books.
