Who abuses power in Lord of the Flies?
Jack, when he leads the hunters and eventually, the rest of the boys, he becomes a tyrannical leader set on destroying his opposition at the risk of completely burning down the island.
In the book Lord of the Flies why were the boys alone on the deserted island?
The plane on which the boys were being evacuated crashed on the island during a storm and the adults (along with some of the boys) on board were killed.
What are two books mentioned that remind the boys about the adventure they hope to have on the island?
When Ralph told the assembly of boys that they were on an island, "like in a book" various boys called out.. "Like Treasure Island, Swallows and Amazons, The Coral Island." As Swallows and Amazons doesn't take place on a tropical island the other two were much more apt.
The second littlun has lost his connection to the previous world What does this precipitate?
Percival's disconnection to the previous world precipitates the rest of the boys into madness. Jack says there is no beast and if there is, he would kill it. His bloodthirsty side is coming out more and more and it is rubbing off on the other boys. So, Percy's disconnection leads to the other boys' disconnection.
Why are the boys excited to be on the island alone?
Because there are no grownups on the island so they can play as they want to .
