Truly I am surprised at how many books set in this universe have been cranked out... and I've enjoyed them all. This book is action-packed like the other Lorien Legacies / Lorien Legacies Reborn books, although it was surprisingly slow at some points. I wouldn't necessarily say it was boring, but it did take me a lot longer to finish Fugitive Six than it has for me to finish the other books in this series.
The strong point of Fugitive Six is the characters. Everyone has their own unique personality, which is impressive considering how many characters there are. At some points I was overwhelmed with the amount of characters and wanted to hear more from certain characters' POVs, but overall, I was impressed with the diversity that the earlier books in Lorien Legacies lacked. I was also surprised at different approach to tone; there's definitely moral grayness, especially towards the end. That's not a bad thing, but it is different from the more straightforward morals in the other books.
Fugitive Six ends with a lot going on, so I'm excited to see how it will all wrap up in the last book.

I enjoyed it but was a bit slow until the last few chapters.

I’m a sucker for teens with special powers.
The ending is a great setup for the next book. Can’t wait to see what happens.

Great sequel! This series is much more complex than the regular one. Man I really need to reread the series. I forgot a lot of stuff. Before it was just everyone against Setrikus Ra! Now there are so many motives and moving pieces.
This narrator doesn't give Sam a nerdy voice like the other one did. I liked it better the old way.
Poor Caleb. I like him and relate to him. Why did Caleb's uncle take away his Chimera? And where are all the other Chimera from the Garde?
I like how Anwar's special move is manipulating the emotions of other people. Reminds me of Galbatorix at the end of Eragon.
There's too many organizations, Earth Guard, Watchtower, the Harvesters, the Foundation, Blackstone Mercenaries, and then there's Anwar or is it Ainar? I loved how Caleb was able to best Ainar.
That's neat how 5 came back. Finally we get to hear from 6 and Sam but they didn't do jack. And where is 7 and 10?
I wish they told more of a backstory and POV from Nigel's mom's point of view or those people who were against the Garde. And speaking of POVs there are too many in the book and by the time you get back to one you have to say "where was this person again"? And there are a ton of characters to keep track of, too.
I hate how Ran is just afraid of her Legacies and thinks they are bad.
That ending was intense. Now I have to wait forever for the next book

This was leagues more exciting and hooking than its predecessor! Thankfully, here we don’t spend the first half of the novel setting up the world and plot, but the second half is really where things start picking up. There’s a lot more action in this novel and more overall connections to the Lorien Legacies series — direct or not.

Another action-packed installment to the series! Great variety of action, tenderness, and humor. This one ends on a bit of a cliffhanger. Looking forward to the next book.
