Hunger is, if possible, even better than Gone. The darkness is tightening it's grip on the kids of the FAYZ imposing it's will onto them, making them do it's evil deeds. The plot unfolds, and Sam starts to lose it because he feels like he keeps failing and getting kids killed. And to add even more to the action, tension between the "normals" and "freaks" is heating up, getting to the point of normals rounding up all the freaks that they can for public beatings and even going to the extreme of trying to hang one. All this adds to the excitement and action of "Gone" and I after reading this I definetely can't wait until I can get my hands on the third book in the Gone series, "Lies"
