Dead Zone

Homeland meets Marie Lu’s Legend in the explosive sequel to Blackout, which #1 New York Times bestselling author Ally Condie called “a thrilling combination of Wells’s trademark twists and terror. Fantastic!”

It began with a virus. Then a series of attacks erupted across the nation. Now America is at war—and a handful of teens with impossible powers are its only defense.

In Dead Zone, Robison Wells 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.

The invasion has begun—and a group of teens are caught in the crossfire.

I volunteered to be a spy, not an assassin.
I know this is war . . .
but I just want to do what's right.

If you ask me, none of us should be here—but no one gave me a choice.
And I won't blindly follow orders.

I am essential to the plan.
And I will be a hero for my country.

If I were normal, I wouldn't be
old enough to join the army.
But I'm not normal. I'm a weapon.

We're a perfect match—
on and off the battlefield.
I hope that means we'll both survive.
