|title=Gone
|author=Michael Grant
|reviewer=Jill Murphy
|genre=Teens
|summary=A real page-turner with a great number of contemporary references from Heroes to Stephen King. The central characters is very strong and particularly engaging. It comes perilously close to Bookbag's hated cliffhanger ending, but wraps enough plot strands to avoid Bookbag's censure. Michael Grant has been [[Michael Grant Talks To Bookbag About The ''GONE'' TV Show|chatting to us]] about the ''Gone'' TV show.

My thanks to the nice people at Egmont for sending the book.
Thematically, they might also enjoy [[The Inferior by Peadar ó Guilín]] or [[The Rule of Claw by John Brindley]]. Stylistically, the voracious readers will engage just as enthusiastically with [[The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins]], a dystopian thriller with just as many nods to multi -media influences. You might enjoy [[The 100 by Kass Morgan]] but we had some reservations.
