The Giver Boxed Set: The Giver, Gathering Blue, Messenger, Son (The Giver Quartet) |
THE GIVER is soon to be a major motion picture starring Jeff Bridges, Katie Holmes and Taylor Swift.
Now available for the first time in the UK, THE GIVER QUARTET is the complete four-novel collection.
THE GIVER: It is the future. There is no war, no hunger, no pain. No one in the community wants for anything. Everything needed is provided. And at twelve years old, each member of the community has their profession carefully chosen for them by the Committee of Elders.
Jonas has never thought there was anything wrong with his world. But from the moment he is selected as the Receiver of Memory, Jonas discovers that their community is not as perfect as it seems…
GATHERING BLUE is a return to the mysterious but plausible future world of THE GIVER. It tells the story of Kira, orphaned, physically flawed, and left with an uncertain future until she is summoned by the Council of Guardians. On her quest for truth that follows, Kira makes discoveries that will change her life and world forever.
In MESSENGER, Matty has lived in Village and flourished under the guidance of Seer, a blind man known for his special sight. His community once welcomed newcomers, but something sinister has seeped into Village and the people have voted to close its borders to outsiders. Now Matty must risk everything to make one last journey through the treacherous forest…
SON is the thrilling conclusion to THE GIVER QUARTET. When ‘Water Claire’ washed up on their shore, no one knew that she came from a society where emotions don’t exist. That she had become a Vessel. That she had carried a Product. That it had been stolen from her body.
Claire’s son is out there, a young boy now. And she will stop at nothing to find her child, even if it means making an unimaginable sacrifice.
Award-winning author Lois Lowry challenges readers to imagine what our world could become, how people could evolve and what could be considered valuable in this fascinating quartet of dystopian novels – now available as a four-book set.
媒体推荐Praise for THE GIVER:
"The Giver, a powerful and provocative novel, is sure to keep older children reading and thinking." New York Times
“Lowry is once again in top form – raising many questions while answering few, and unwinding a tale fit for the most adventurous readers." Publishers Weekly

网友对The Giver Boxed Set: The Giver, Gathering Blue, Messenger, Son (The Giver Quartet)的评论
我买的是平装套装。第一本是电影版封面,和另三本封面看起来有点不搭,不过,便宜啊!后三本我比较了精装本,封面一样页数一样。反正是用来看不是收藏,100出头的价格很划算。
书是超棒的,但是包装太差了,被砸的乱七八糟的。
包装很好,应该不错。
I LOVE the books and the box set
But this particular set from US Saver that I ordered is awful.
The paper is SO thin that the print from the other side shows right through, making it VERY hard to read these books.
VERY unfortunate
Teacher approved! Got this for my son's ELA teacher's class library. So far the kiddos are progressing to the remainder of the series. Most of the teachers and kids didn't even know it was a series.
Good reading fir my middle schooler. Great price
excellent price for this set
