THE DEAD By: Charlie HigsonA terrible disease is infecting everyone over the age of sixteen. It starts out like a cold. Your nose gets runny. Your head starts to hurt. Maybe your throat begins to feel scratchy and you start to cough. The your skin starts to itch. It won't stop and soon you're covered in boils and blisters and voices are ringing in you head. They want you to eat, eat children, eat each other...
Jack and Ed, two English boarding school student's discover the effects of this horrible disease for themselves when their teachers begin to turn into horrible flesh-eating creatures. The boys decide that they need to escape to the city before it's too late. But will it really be better in the city: or is all hope lost for those uninfected? Ages 14 and up.
