‘The Rise Of Nine’ by Pittacus Lore

“Until the day I met John Smith, Number Four, I’d been on the run alone, hiding and fighting to stay alive.

Together, we are much more powerful. But it could only last so long before we had to separate to find the others

I went to Spain to find Seven, and I found even more, including a tenth member of the Garde who escaped from Lorien alive. Ella is younger than the rest of us, but just as brave. Now we’re looking for the others—including John.

But so are they.

They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They caught me in New York — but I escaped.
I am Number Six.
They want to finish what they started.

But they’ll have to fight us first.”

Has this captured you? Do you want to keep reading? Or maybe find out what’s happening next?

‘The Rise of Nine’ by Pittacus Lore takes science fiction to another level! This book takes place on Earth after the Mogadorians have destroyed the Loriens’ planet. Now there are only ten left but after one, two, and three have been captured it’s up to the others to fight on.

This is an action-packed novel that always makes you ask what’s going to happen and before you know it, you’re halfway through the book.

I would recommend this novel for people over the age of 13 as there is some coarse language, and also for kids with amazing imaginations just like Pittacus Lore. Overall, ‘The Rise of Nine’ by Pittacus Lore shows captivating language to keep you reading, strong and action-packed events and an amazing storyline.

So do the Loriens get captured by the Mogadorians? Or do they fight them and win? This is where your journey starts, so get reading!!
