I Am Number Four (Lorien Legacies, #1) by Pittacus Lore The Mogadorian Civilization is dying. They've de exhausted their planet's resources and they attack and take over The Lorien planet and civilization. Out of desperation, nine children with exceptional abilities - The Garde - are shipped with their Cêpans or Keepers - to Earth. The plan was to grow, train, and become strong - to become one so they can fight the Mogadorians and reclaim Lorien. But the Mogadorians followed them to Earth. They are being hunted even though they have spent their lives in the shadows, hiding in plain sight. There was an enchantment so that they would have to be eliminated in order. But they are succeeding: Number One was killed in Malaysia, Number Two in England, Number Three in Kenya. And now, they are coming for Number Four. This is the story of Number Four - who now goes by the name of John Smith and who's hiding in Paradise, OH. It's a coming of age story - as number four falls for Sarah Hart, daughter of the realtor who got them their house on 17 Old Mill Road. The story of Mark James, a football jock and son of the town sheriff, who bullies John, because he was dating Sarah. The story of Sam Goode, a nerd who believes that his father was abducted by aliens. It's the story of Bernie Kosar, John's pet beagle. And the story of Henri - real name Brendan - who cares and trains John as if he was the son he never had. As John's powers develop, he must fend off the Mogadorians who are after him and Henri. Will they survive? Will they be able to stop the Mogadorians' quest to conquer Earth? Narrated from the first person point of view, this Young Adult thriller is a pleasure to read. The characters are three dimensional and you immediately identify and care for them. This is a story that is full of action and adventure and makes for a very fast read. Reading how John fights to stay alive will have readers hoping for more about him in the other books. The book is full of twists and turns and definitely takes readers on a roller coast ride that is unforgettable.
