United as One by Pittacus Lore

Summary: "The seventh and final book in the #1 New York Times bestselling I Am Number Four series! With United as One, this action-packed series comes to a surprising, breathtaking, and utterly satisfying conclusion. The Garde didn’t start this war, but they’ll do whatever it takes to end it once and for all. . ."

I can't believe this series is over. 

It's been a part of my life for almost 5 years now, and I don't want it to end! 

The Garde finally have their ultimate knock-down, drag-out showdown with the Mogs. The battles were more intense than I ever expected. I was crying and freaking out for a large portion of the book. 

No other book series has quite matched the level of teamwork and ragtag family vibes as the Lorien Legacies. I wish more book series developed this level of friendship and value among its characters. It's truly a special reading experience. 

For your reference, the book order goes:

I am Number Four

The Power of Six
The Rise of Nine
The Fall of Five
The Revenge of Seven 
The Fate of Ten
United as One

There are also many short stories and "lost files" that supplement the books (I haven't read those).

The Fate of Ten by Pittacus Lore

Summary: The Fate of Ten picks up right after The Revenge of Seven with the invasion of Manhattan. It is the sixth book in the Lorien Legacies series. I believe that there is going to be just one more book in the series, and I'm quite looking forward to it. This installment is told mostly from John Smith (Four) and Six's points of view, plus a new human character gets a chapter or two. Parts of this book were excellent, but others were a bit slow. I was frustrated with John's storyline, as he was separated from the rest of the Garde for most of the book. The strength of the story is when the Garde is all together, working as a team to take down the bad guys. Once again, the book ends on a major cliffhanger, and I will have to wait a year to find out what happens next!!

Revenge of Seven by Pittacus Lore


Summary: "The Garde, broken and divided, discover that the Mogadorians have commenced their ultimate invasion plans and will stop at nothing to thwart it."

Book Five in the I am Number Four, aka the Lorien Legacies, series. This book is so very exciting and adventurous, and ultimately left me wanting more, as always. By this point, I've gotten very attached to the members of the Garde and their friends; I can't wait to see what happens next.

It's going to be a long, anxious wait until August of next year. 

Make sure to check out the other books in this series (highly recommend):
