Resumen del Editor

From the bestselling author of RESTART, the story of a middle-school "band of brothers"—five friends who need to stick together after they set up a hideout in an abandoned bomb shelter and discover that the only way to be true friends is to reveal their secrets and help each other out.

The morning after Hurricane Leo rips through the town of Canaan, residents awaken to widespread destruction—power outages, downed branches, uprooted trees, broken windows and damaged roofs. Four eighth-grade friends—Evan, Jason, Mitchell, and CJ—meet to explore the devastation. The tight-knit group is dismayed to find that Evan has brought along a stray—Ricky, who is new to their town and school, and doesn’t have any friends yet.

Ricky is the one to find the strange trap door that’s appeared in the middle of the woods—the door to an old bomb shelter, unearthed by the hurricane. Inside, the boys find a completely intact underground lair, complete with electricity, food, and entertainment (in the form of videocassettes). The boys vow to keep the place’s existence to themselves.

Things soon get tense. Some bad locals keep snooping around. And what started out as a fun place to escape soon becomes a serious refuge for one of the kids who is trying to avoid an abusive home situation. In order to save the shelter, the friends must keep its secret... and in order to save themselves, they’re going to have to share their individual secrets, and build the safest place they can.

This book was incredible I loved it so much. I definitely recommend this one

I was not expecting it to be so deep.

the characters were well developed and I couldn't help but care for each of them

The kindness

I like The friendship I do not like the ending of the book It was

Great book,

It’s a great book, and I love the secrecy and the characters. I love this book.

When the bully jaiger stabbed Marcus and everybody just started going against jaiger it was the most exciting part!🤩🤩

I liked EVERYTHING🫥🫥 it was awesome. (These words in the parenthesis are pointless it’s just to fill in the fifteen word minimum policy.)

Stunning

I love everything about this book. It brings to mind issues you’d rather not think about, all while weaving a riveting story which I finished far faster than I wanted to. You truly get to empathize with the characters, and also feel the excitement of having a fort like no other. My only wish is there was more character development it mitchel, but otherwise I very much recommend.

A summer must

Amazing

So much fun to listen to and so much character amazing book in general!AMAZING

Another great Gordon Korman book

My son and I listen to these books together in the car and always love Gordon Korman stories. The Fort was a great story but what was especially impactful was the real world complications in families. The dynamics between the kids in the story in relation to what they have going on at home really made this story. Plus it brings awareness to these situations to kid listeners that may not be aware of complex issues in families.
