"The Garde have suffered an unbearable loss. Number Five has betrayed them. Eight is gone forever. Ella has been kidnapped. The others are now scattered. In Chicago, John makes the unlikeliest of allies: Adam, a Mogadorian who turned his back on his people. He has invaluable information about Mog technology, battle strategies, and weaknesses. Most important, he knows where to hit them: their command base near Washington, DC. During the assault, however, John and Adam learn the unimaginable truth: it is too late. The Mogadorians have commenced their ultimate invasion plans. With a front-row seat to the impending invasion, Ella finds herself in the hands of the enemy. For some reason she's more valuable to them alive, and they'll stop at nothing to turn her. Meanwhile, Six, Nine, and Marina make their way through the Florida Everglades, hot on the trail of the traitorous Five. With the development of a new Legacy, Marina finally has the power to fight back--if her thirst for revenge doesn't consume her first. The Garde are broken and divided once again, but they will not be defeated. As long as one still stands, the battle for Earth's survival is not lost"-- from publisher's web site.
"The worst was supposed to be over. We were reunited after a decade apart. We were discovering the truth about our past. We were training and getting stronger every day. We were even happy. ... We never imagined the Mogadorians could turn one of our own against us. We were fools for trusting Five. And now Eight is lost forever. I would do anything to bring him back, but that's impossible. Instead, I will do whatever it takes to destroy every last one of them. I've spent my entire life hiding from them, and they've stolen everything away from me. But that stops now. We're going to take the battle to them. We have a new ally who knows their weaknesses. And I finally have the power to fight back. They caught Number One in Malaysia. Number Two in England. Number Three in Kenya. And Number Eight in Florida. They killed them all. I am Number Seven. I will make them pay"-- from publisher's web site.

Great Series! submitted by tree64 on August 26, 2015, 10:04pm This book is the fifth book in the "Lorien Legacies" series. It is about the plight of seven alien teenagers (who happen to look exactly like humans), known as the Loric, to once and for all destroy the aliens that have chased them across the universe, who are called Mogadorians. The Mogadorians destroyed their home planet and are out to hunt the remaining Loric, having chased them to the planet Earth, which they are also planning to invade and take over as part of their "Great Expansion". It is up to the Loric teenagers to protect Earth and stop the Mogadorians.

Overall, this book was very captivating, and I finished it in no time at all. It was full of action and suspense, and you never know what twists the author is going to throw into the book. I really enjoyed it, and I would highly recommend readers who have not yet read this series to give these books a chance. The plot may sound cheesy, but it is laid out amazingly by the author and it really is a great read.
