Dead Zone

Homeland meets Marie Lu’s Legend in the explosive dystopian YA 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 sci-fi thriller yet—and an electrifying conclusion to a two-book series that’s perfect for fans of The Maze Runner and I Am Number Four.

America's only hope is a handful of superpowered teens. But the enemy has weapons of their own—

• Teens with Superpowers: An invisible girl and a boy with super-senses are forced to become spies in a war they are not ready to fight.
• Military Science Fiction: Experience the chaos of the front lines where superpowered soldiers are the ultimate weapons and every mission could be their last.
• Russian Invasion: A hostile nation has landed on American soil, armed with a secret weapon that can disable all electronics and bring the country to its knees.
• Found Family: Thrown together into a special ops team, a group of gifted but unprepared teens must learn to trust each other to survive.

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

It started with a virus. Then a series of attacks swept across the nation. Now a few teenagers with impossible powers are America's only defense. None of them is ready for war . . . but the time for choices is over, and the rush to the front lines is about to begin.
