Please provide reliable sources for the contents of the Fear and Light sections. The books are atleast one and two years away from publication, so the I am considering the contents of the sections as speculation. Dracoster ( talk) 17:08, 31 March 2011 (UTC)

Is this series really supernatural fiction? With all these new plot elements with aliens and nuclear radiation, isn't it closer to science fiction? — C Teng (talk) 18:24, 2 October 2010 (UTC)
Did Sam and Caine poof? In Novels under Gone it says: Sam then poofs because Caine waited for their birthday to attack. He is confronted by his mother who tells him to take her hand. Caine then poofs as well and joins Sam and their 'mother'. Then it goes on saying how Caine and Sam refused to go, which is contradicting, isn't it? Also, in the section for Hunger it references Sam and Caine repeatedly, so Sam and Caine must still exist. The other sections do not talk about how Caine and Sam are dealing with living with their 'mother'. It may be a good idea to delete those sentences. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.178.11.153 ( talk) 21:50, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
The link to the Polsih site is a misunderstanding imo. It is purly comercial site which uses name "Seria Gone" for their own goals - it has nothing to do with book. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 95.49.26.241 ( talk) 13:36, 21 January 2011 (UTC)
theres no section for Brittney- Ellodi-Fune on Deviantart I really like this book so far. I just recently checked it out at our school's Media Center. I espically like the part when all the kids are wondering where the teachers are. ( Slipknothood ( talk) 16:44, 27 May 2011 (UTC)) Slipknothood
After skimming through the article, I've noticed numerous poorly-worded or grammatically incorrect sentences, missing full stops, and a general - how can I put this - ungainly writing style. It needs a lot of correction. Matt The Sixth ( talk) 15:57, 7 February 2012 (UTC)
The third paragraph in the intro still has a few poorly written areas. For instance, sentence 2 begins "It was set four years later from the events..." IT should be re-worded to something like "It was set four years after..." Also, the third sentence begins with "And then", which should be omitted. I would have made these changes myself; however, I am not able to edit the introductory paragraph. Could someone with sufficient permission please fix this? 169.199.30.228 ( talk) 16:17, 27 October 2017 (UTC)
I am interested in creating a page for one of Michael Grant's other Novel series, BZRK. I am currently in the process of creating it in my Sandbox (Although I haven't done much so far) If anyone is interested in collaborating, feel free to add to my Sandbox, and I'll make a proper page once we have enough written on it. Thanks :) Cybergrany ( talk) 12:30, 16 May 2012 (UTC)
Do Caine and Diana have sex at the end of Hunger? In the following novel, Lies, when Caine and Diana are on San Francisco de Sales island they have sex for the first time, meaning they couldn't have done so at the end of Hunger. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.155.149.25 ( talk) 01:41, 10 June 2014 (UTC)
does any one know what awards Gone has received? 82.22.51.67 ( talk) 10:21, 31 October 2014 (UTC)
I hope none, because it is one of the worst possible writings. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:AB88:373C:3080:5D8B:48F:50B8:5120 ( talk) 17:47, 23 September 2019 (UTC)

Please do not vandalize this page by repeatedly adding 'John Cena' to the page as it is completely off-topic, and can be taken as evidence of bad faith edits. A lot of edits on this page have done this, and if you do not want to make the page better, then at least do not make it worse. Please discuss if this page should get 'Protected' or 'Semi-Protected' status since a lot of vandalism is going on on this page. --
