About the Book



Pursued by power-hungry Prentiss and mad minister Aaron, young Todd and Viola set out across New World searching for answers about his colony's true past and seeking a way to warn the ship bringing hopeful settlers from Old World.



Book Synopsis



Read it before you see it! The first book of Patrick Ness's astonishing Chaos Walking trilogy, inspiration for a major motion picture, is now available in a movie tie-in edition.

Todd Hewitt is the only boy in a town of men. Ever since the settlers were infected with the Noise germ, Todd can hear everything the men think, and they hear everything he thinks. In the midst of the cacophony, Todd knows that the town is hiding something from him: something so awful he is forced to flee. With hostile men from the town in pursuit, Todd stumbles upon a strange and eerily silent creature: a girl. Who is she? Why wasn't she killed by the germ like all the females on New World? Propelled by Todd's gritty narration, readers are in for a white-knuckle journey in which a boy on the cusp of manhood must unlearn everything he knows in order to figure out who he truly is.



Review Quotes



Crack dramatic and comic timing... unforgettable... penetrating... The cliffhanger ending is as effective as a shot to the gut.
--Booklist (starred review)

The emotional, physical, and intellectual drama is well crafted and relentless...Tension [and] suspense...are palpable throughout, mitigated by occasional moments of welcome humor.
--School Library Journal

Todd's world is a fascinating one, and the psychological and sociological impact of being unable to shut out others' thoughts--or hide your own--is creatively explored ... Todd's colloquial voice is by turns defensive, belligerent, innocent, and desperate; the strength of his point of view and the subtle world-building contained in it make this series opener as promising as it is provocative.
--The Horn Book

Todd and Viola...are realistically portrayed as kids frequently overwhelmed and terrified by their circumstances...The nicely balanced mix of coming-of-age novel, science-fiction adventure, and dystopic thriller will make this an appealing choice for a range of genre readers...still unsolved mysteries, carefully developed by Ness and left at tantalizing moments of resolution, guarantee anticipation for the next two.
--The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Skillfully structured narrative creates an elegant mixture of action, dialogue, and dark, dsytopian pathos.
--VOYA

Gives us a glimpse of the depth of evil in our hearts...the ending of this book is absolutely chilling and leaves the reader begging for more.
--Library Media Connection

This riveting SF thriller is action-packed, with edge-of-your-seat chase scenes, a monstrous villain who just won't die, and moments of both anguish and triumph...Emotionally intense...haunting page-turner.
--KLIATT

Perhaps the most impressive of the recent crop [of dystopian YA]
--New Yorker

A read-alone, stay-up-way-too-late book for older readers looking for the combination of being scared and being stirred to gallop to the end.
--Chicago Tribune

The powerful, gut-clenching cliffhanger will definitely leave you wanting more.
--Orlando Examiner online

Filled with action, this title will definitely be pleasing to those loving dystopian novels or just looking for a good, if not a tad bit strange, adventure.
--A Patchwork of Books
