Product Description Jeremy has a dream: To be the greatest lightmaker for the greatest west coast rock band, RebelFire. But what can he do? He's just a kid. A kid trapped in a prison-like school. Trapped in a world where dreams are treated with drugs and roving patrols make sure you take your dose. Trapped in the Zone, where travel without a permit is impossible. Trapped under the all-controlling eye of spycams, sensors, and monitors. Trapped by the chip in his wrist that regulates everything Jeremy can or can't do. Trapped in a world where some far-off control freak can even decide what music he's allowed or forbidden to hear. Jeremy's only choice is to shut up and do as he's ordered. But some people were never meant to be controlled ... Enter the world of "RebelFire: Out of the Gray Zone". Experience the book. Hear the music. The first four chapters can be read online at www.rebelfirerock.com

An awesome story September 15, 2008 This book is a well written guide to understanding what is happening in our society and how one youth deals with it. All ages should read this and would find it interesting and enjoyable.
RebelFire Rocks January 17, 2008 Out of the Gray Zone is a great read! It is not only enjoyable as fiction; it is also thought provoking in its story line. When I first started reading the book I thought it would be more for the general high school male audience, therefore not my type. It begins with a young man absorbed in a music high, imagining himself as a big rock star. Only he carried something more important, outweighing all the inconveniences he would have ever had to encounter. Jeremy's will and hope was for freedom to play music, freedom from HPG patrols, Drug Enforcement or some other arms of the government. The novel's descriptiveness and ease of reading came strongly across just as vividly as if I was watching an awesome action movie. The main character let me have a glimpse into how inconceivable our world might possibly become if we allowed the present tendencies of our leadership to take over. Look around. We are already in the "Gray Zone" with Ritalin and national ID. Beware -- reality IS stranger than fiction.
I'm anxiously awaiting the release of the next RebelFire book.
Sorry, but it is just not a 5 star book March 9, 2006 1 out of 3 found this review helpful
After ordering the book, I waited with great expectations that the book would read like The Black Arrow or some other great work. It didn't. I gave it a 3 because it is well written by two great authors who see things the same way I do, but it just didn't have a story line or development that would deserve a 5 in my humble opinion. I had to temper that with the fact that this book was written for teens, so the language and the levels of sex and violence had to match the intended audience. A 13 year old might like it, but I found it - shall we say - bland. I think most teen-agers would rather see more blood & guts (video games makes them that way). It could have been better. I hope the sequel finds Jeremy in the rebellion toting an old fashioned AK-47 against the evil CentGov troopers. What the heck, buy one and read it. You'll need it to understand the sequel.

If Mark Twain were alive today, he'd recognize a little of his work in this tale of a boy battling the wilderness and the system. That said, it's a good read and I eagerly await the next volume in the series.
Great book... Just have an adult blackout/whiteout some parts. August 23, 2005 6 out of 12 found this review helpful
I'm 13 yrs., old almost 14, and my parents bought me this book because I'm a teenager and it was recommended by JFPO( Jews for the Preservation of Firearms Ownership). Just the same, I wish they had read it first. There were some references to adult topics that I did not want to see and that I wish my parents had removed first.I also don't like rock music. Those, however are my ONLY complaints withs this book. It's fast-paced, exciting, thrilling... in a nutshell, GREAT! It is an excellent example of what those New World Order freaks want to do to us. No meat, no guns, no opinions (except those that are approved, of course), everybody tracked, drugged, and the list goes on and on. However, I think that an adult should read this first and blackout/ whiteout some parts, those parts being the only thing that kept this from getting a 5 star rating.
