Really liked it, I'm gonna finish the saga for sure. The relationship between everyone was just lovable, warm and uncomplicated without any weird unnecessary drama and I really appreciated that they just cared for each other earnestly. The plot is actually quite simple with a bit of mysteries about what happened the day of the invasion but not much else, just the good guys vs the bad ones

I haven’t read a sci fi book since January. This one was amazing! I love how the author and book try to convince you it is real! I have never seen that before. During the whole book i was wondering if there was a spy among the main group, but i was proven wrong. The only part in the book that freaked me out a little was when Sam pulled the gun on Four, and when Four and Sam confronted the guys in Athens. Henri dying was a shock to me, but i felt like he wouldn’t make it throughout the book anyway. I saw the dog being Hadley a mile away, i was still very excited when Four found out. The house fire was, unpredictable and insane to say the least, it really caught me off guard! It was a great book overall though. Thank you for whoever will read my awful reviews btw!

Easy to read, very engaging story - like reading an action movie! (Though this book is much better than the movie version). The book is fairly short, I read it in two days. The characters are well fleshed out and real. A good chunk of this book is learning the history, backstory, and setting the scene for upcoming war. The author(s) do(es) a good job of making the entire book entertaining and leaves you hungry for the next part of the story.
This series focuses on a group of 9 children from the planet Lorien. Lorien was attacked by a race known as the Mogadorians. They are vicious, brutal, and basically destroy everything they touch. These 9 children and their cepans (guardians/teachers) were saved as the Mogs attacked and eventually killed their planet. They escaped to earth and are on the run, trying to stay alive until they grow up, develop their legacies (powers), and can fight back.
To protect them, the elder's placed a charm over them. This charm will only allow them to be killed in number order (making it harder for the Mogs to catch and kill them). The charm will hold as long as they are all separated. Numbers 1-3 have already been killed. This is number 4's story.

I loved this book it was so different. I enjoyed the plot and the writing. Once I picked up this book I did not what to put it down till it was over and I can not wait for the next one. I will admit the fight scene got a little confusing and I had to reread a few parts...still not sure I understand them. I however loved the relationships in the book, Henri and John, John and Sarah, Sarah and Mark, Mark and John, Sam and John, six and Sam. I will also admit that there was not a dry eye in the story at the end or in my room.
I can not wait to find out about more of the secrets the chest hold and all the stuff left for John to discover. And when he finds the others will he find Lordic love or always love Sarah?
