Gregor and the Prophecy of Bane is the second book in Suzanne Collins's children's novel series The Underland Chronicles.[3] Published in 2004, the novel contains elements of high fantasy.[1] The novel focuses on a prophecy mentioned at the end of Gregor the Overlander which the Underlanders believe requires the protagonist Gregor to hunt down and kill an evil white rat known as the "Bane". The novel has been praised as a sequel and for showing the maturation of Gregor in the face of continually dark events.[4]
Several editions have been published, including standalone paperbacks and hardcovers and a paperback boxed set including all five books of the series. Listening Library published an audiobook version read by Paul Boehmer on April 11, 2006.[5] The novel has also been released as an ebook, and is available from various online stores.[2]
