About this book

Zachary, living with his divorced mother in California, finds violence gradually invading his life and making significant changes in his day-to-day existence.

Censorship history

In 2025, "Edge" by Michael Cadnum was banned at the school level in several districts across the United States due to concerns over its violent content. The ban was primarily driven by complaints from parents and local advocacy groups, leading to school board votes in states like California, where the book was deemed inappropriate for students. As of now, the ban remains upheld in these districts, with ongoing discussions about its potential reinstatement in the curriculum.
