I am number four is a slow paced tale of how an alien named John Smith comes into his powers. Him plus 8 others were brought to earth after the Mogs, evil soul sucking aliens, destroyed their planet Lorien. 

The story is a good kick off to an epic series. It moves slow and allows you time to get comfortable with the characters we are introduced to. Reading it again I have a new found appreciation for the novel. 

It is one of the few sci-fi books I enjoy because this series tells so many stories. If you enjoy slow paced, action filled, world building novels then I think you will enjoy this.
