總之如果不想盡辦法逃亡,唯一下場就只有死!
「熔爐」Furnace - 不僅僅是一個青少年觀護所,也是世界上最危險的監獄。它被建造在地球最深層的地方,不見天日,出口和入口只有一個,不過往往進去後就沒有人在出來過。因為在這死是唯一妳不用擔心的事!十三歲的Alex Sawyer因被控告謀殺被送進去,但究竟是什麼原因,在這法律制裁的背後讓他似乎沒有挽回的餘地,不過他相信正義最終會在他這邊,而他一定能逃離這如地獄般的處境,當他和同伴Zed在找尋出入的同時,也漸漸發覺這掩藏這監獄後可怕的秘密……

Beneath heaven is hell. Beneath hell is Furnace.

’They framed me for murder, condemned me to life in Furnace with its punishments and pain. I’ve got to get out of here. If I don’t, it could be me the Wheezers come for. Me who’s dragged screaming from my cell. Me who’s brought back scarred, twisted and hungry for blood.’


It is the near future and thirteen-year-old Alex is sent to Furnace Penitentiary - the toughest prison in the world for young offenders. Rowdy inmates and sadistic guards are the least of Alex’s problems here. In a desperate bid for freedom Alex and his friend Zed discover a horrifying truth behind Furnace . . . This is the first terrifying and surprising book in a series of three about Furnace.

中文概要

在熔炉这所监狱中,死亡随时都可能降临在你的身上。逃离,仅仅只是一个开端假设你已经成功逃离并获得自由,但有一点你必须了解:这里是没有任何出口的。因此,唯一的路是向监狱的更深处前进。监狱的最深处是单独监禁带,那里才是噩梦所在的地方,监狱长,喘息声,以及更可怕地东西都聚集在那里。时间在一分一秒的流逝,如果你没能及时的逃脱,那么他们便会把你变成和他们一样的怪胎,并永久的留在熔炉中……而在这个黑暗的旋涡中,所有可怕地噩梦都会一点一点变为现实……

Furnace Prison - Where death is the least of your worries. Escape is just the beginning…We thought we’d made it, we thought we were free. But we should have known there was no way out of Furnace. All we did was slip deeper into the guts of the prison: into solitary confinement, where the real nightmares live - the warden, the Wheezers, and something much, much worse. The clock’s ticking. Because if we don’t escape soon they will turn us into freaks - like them. Forever. In the darkness of the hole your worst nightmares come to life.

此系列目前規劃推出三集,Faber & Faber計畫今年四月推出第二集Furnace: Solitary,明年春季推出第三集Furnace: Death Sentence
