Villain (The Monster Series)

My teen loves this series and keeps asking for more books!

It's a book.

Excellent book, and good quality shipment

Review from Antony Simpson's Blog:Villain is the captivating second book in a trilogy that follows on from the superb and super selling Gone Series.The first book in the trilogy was Monster.The Gone Series had six books:1. Gone2. Hunger3. Lies4. Plague5. Fear6. LightIn Villain we meet Dillon Poe, a boy who once morphed, can command anyone to do anything. Anyone who hears his voice must obey his every command, even if it means hurting themselves or others.Dillon is a survivor of the Perdido Beach Anomaly. But unlike some of the other kids in Perdido Beach, Dillon didn’t get any special powers there. After Perdido Beach Dillon’s parents moved to Las Vegas – which is where most of the book is set.Dillon buys some Perdido Beach Magic Stone online and after he consumes it. Afterwards he discovers he can morph into a greener and better version of himself. He discovers that when he’s morphed people must obey his every order. Dillon is a wannabe Comedian and when he morphs he has an audience, the dark watchers. Dillon sets out to do whatever he wants and to entertain his new audience. This inevitably leads to chaos in the streets, casinos and hotels that make up Las Vegas.Then we catch up with Malik Tenerlife, Shade Darby and Cruz. Malik is in agony after most of his body was burnt in a battle at the end of Monster. Shade and Cruz make the decision to give some of the space rock to Malik, but it doesn’t work out quite as they had both hoped.Shade, Cruz and Malik hear about Dillon’s antics and decide to be heroes. They team up with Dekka Talent and Armo and all make their way to Las Vegas.Along the way a secret Army base, known as the Ranch, hopes to fight powers with powers. They have also been experimenting on soldiers, adding technology to their damaged bodies. It resembles a shop of horrors and the new heroes, with Dekka and Armo decide to close down the Ranch for good.Tom Peaks, the Monster, wakes up with a hangover from hell. He finds himself in a cave, which is the torture chamber of Drake. Also known as Whip Hand.Drake holds a grudge and still wants revenge on Sam Temple and Astrid Eillson. His anger seems to be targeted at Astrid. He really hates her.Dekka visits Sam and Astrid. Dekka secretly gives Astrid some of the space rock.Villain ends with an epic battle in Las Vegas and leaves the reader with lots of excitement for the next book in the series.Villain is an addictive and page-turning read. The characters are brilliantly developed, they have a great level of depth and develop as the plot does.The plot is good, but focused only on Las Vegas and parts of the United States. Pieces from the meteorite are falling to earth in locations all over the world. It would have been great to have characters that come together from all over the world.Grant’s use of description enables the reader to imagine everything perfectly. Grant’s pacing expertly flows from fast action scenes to more moderate character and plot development scenes.Villain is available to buy at all good book shops and on Amazon.Review soon,Antony

I have not read this yet but, I suspect it will be as good as all his other book's. I have now read this book and find it totally enthralling, I found it extremely hard to put it down once I had started reading it and in fact read it from cover to cover in a little over a day and a half , this author is bordering on being a genius writer and I hope that he and his wife carry on writing for many years to come. EXCELLENT.

I have always loved how Michael Grant doesn't shy away from the more grim side of the events he writes about and has a bleak and realistic view of how superheroes and villains would work in reality. This novel is really dark, really gory and a little unsettling in some places. The Gone series and now the Monster series are incredible in every way and continue to excite me even years after i began reading the series

This book takes the issue to a global level. It could have become ridiculous but it doesn’t. The new lead characters in this trilogy are firmly established. Brings some old favourites in well. It has a good fast paced plot, with an explosive ending. Looking forward to the third and final book.

Another good read by the Author Michael Grant. The fact that the previous guys are in this book only made it seem all that more believable. The FAYZ has gotten bigger and better. If your a Gone fan I can't recommend this book enough. It is worth reading and a valuable part of the entire Gone series. Thank you Mr Grant. I really enjoyed this one as much as the previous ones.
