Overview:
This paperback boxed set brings together Patrick Ness's landmark Chaos Walking trilogy in one collection. Following Todd Hewitt through a world where every thought can be heard, the three novels combine breathless action with searching questions about truth, power and identity. Winner of multiple awards and loved by YA readers worldwide, this set is the perfect way to experience the whole story in one durable paperback edition, built for repeat reading and sharing.

About the Books:
The Knife of Never Letting Go opens the trilogy in Prentisstown, where a strange germ has made every man's thoughts audible in a constant stream called Noise. Young Todd Hewitt is the last boy in town, and when he finds a patch of unnatural silence nearby, his world begins to unravel. Forced to flee with only his dog Manchee, Todd uncovers secrets his town has hidden for years. The Ask and the Answer thrusts Todd and his companion Viola into the city of Haven, now ruled by the ruthless Mayor Prentiss under an oppressive new regime called the Answer. Loyalties are tested and an uprising simmers, with both characters narrating chapters that widen the story's scope and moral complexity. Monsters of Men brings the trilogy to its explosive close as three armies — human settlers, the indigenous Spackle, and a returning colonisation ship — collide in a devastating war. A fourth voice, the Spackle known as 1017, joins Todd and Viola's narration, deepening the exploration of otherness and forgiveness. Across all three books, Ness's urgent, stripped-back prose and willingness to hurt his characters make for a reading experience that is emotionally raw and impossible to put down.
