PHOENIX ISLAND (DISSIDENT)
Book ID/图书代码： 06830013B62456
English Summary/英文概要： When his defense of a helpless stranger lands sixteen-year-old boxing champion Carl Freeman in real trouble – a two-year sentence at an isolated boot camp island for orphans – he’s determined to tough it out, earn a clean record, and get on with his life. Then kids start to die. Realizing Phoenix Island is actually a Spartan-style mercenary organization turning “throwaway children” into killers, Carl risks everything to save his friends and stop a madman bent on global destruction.
A hero with heart – think “Katniss Everdeen meets Rocky” – Carl transforms from a tough kid with a troubled past into a highly trained “super soldier” with scientifically enhanced strength, speed, and endurance. In this age of global unrest, he is a perfect hero for both teen and adult readers.

Aimed at fans of The Hunger Games and Anthony Horowitz’s Alex Rider novels, Phoenix Island is the first in a series of fast-paced, character-driven thrillers pitting bully-hating Carl Freeman against international terrorists and high-stakes threats.
Film rights to PHOENIX ISLAND were sold and the American television network, CBS, began filming a TV show pilot in March. The TV show, Intelligence is centered at US Cyber Command, and focuses on a unit that has been created around Gabriel Black, an agent with a very special gift: a microchip that has been implanted in his brain that allows him to access the entire electromagnetic spectrum. Gabriel Black is played by Josh Holloway, star of the Emmy Award winning show, Lost.
