The gripping fourth instalment in an epic series about Furnace - a terrifying, underground prison for teenagers - now with a stunning new cover. Alex thought that escape was impossible. He was wrong. We broke out of Furnace but we're still not free. The city is in lockdown - roads sealed, police everywhere. And there are worse things here: creatures of death sent to bring the world to its knees. I'm turning into one of them, into a monster. To put an end to this blood-crazed madness I have to travel into the heart of darkness. I have to find Alfred Furnace before he finds me. Soon the whole world will be a prison. Action-packed, gritty and gruesome - this is the perfect read for thrill-hungry teens. With striking new covers that really bring these chilling stories to life.

This was probably my least favourite book of the series. It felt really slow in some parts and I had to drag myself through some of it. This book of the series is more of a 3 star to me.
So we follow Alex as he travels into the city and suddenly the scope of this series is dramatically altered. We go a single self contained prison to a global pandemic. The genre shifts from prison break to a Post apocalyptic saga. There are points where this book seems unnecessary, but AGS manages to recover it towards the end giving us a glimpse of the Warden and feeding us some burgers. All in all we barrel our way towards the climax
