Siamo arrivati in nove. Vestiamo come voi, parliamo come voi, viviamo come voi. Ma non siamo affatto come voi. Siamo in grado di fare cose che voi non potete neanche sognare. Abbiamo poteri che voi non riuscite nemmeno a immaginare. Siamo più forti, più veloci e più abili di qualsiasi essere vivente del vostro pianeta. Avete presente i supereroi dei fumetti e dei film? Una cosa del genere, ma noi siamo reali.
Die Jagd geht weiter. Ich habe ihn in den Nachrichten gesehen. John Smith, irgendwo da draußen, auf der Flucht. Für die Welt ist er ein Mysterium. Für mich ist er einer von uns. Ich kann es fühlen. Und ich weiß, dass ich ihn finden muss. Der neue Band der Erfolgsserie "Das Erbe von Lorien". Sie haben Nummer Eins, Zwei und Drei getötet. Sie versuchten es bei Nummer Vier. Sie haben versagt. Sechs von uns leben noch. Wir sind bereit zum Kampf. Und unser Erbe entwickelt sich. Nummer Sieben lebt mit ihrer Cêpan in Spanien. Von dort verfolgt sie die Ereignisse in Paradise. Sie ist sicher: John Smith ist einer der ihren. Als sie sich auf die Suche nach ihm macht, wird sie von den Mogadori aufgehalten. Währenddessen kämpft auch John gegen die Mogadori – und gegen seine Gefühle für Sechs. Ist er doch dazu bestimmt, mit einer Frau von Lorien zusammen zu sein? Was ist mit Sarah? Und wo stecken die Restlichen der Garde?
I’ve seen him on the news. Followed the stories about what happened in Ohio. John Smith, out there, on the run. To the world, he’s a mystery. But to me . . . he’s one of us. Nine of us came here, but sometimes I wonder if time has changed us—if we all still believe in our mission. How can I know? There are six of us left. We’re hiding, blending in, avoiding contact with one another . . . but our Legacies are developing, and soon we’ll be equipped to fight. Is John Number Four, and is his appearance the sign I’ve been waiting for? And what about Number Five and Six? Could one of them be the raven-haired girl with the stormy eyes from my dreams? The girl with powers that are beyond anything I could ever imagine? The girl who may be strong enough to bring the six of us together? They caught Number One in Malaysia. Number Two in England. And Number Three in Kenya. They tried to catch Number Four in Ohio—and failed. I am Number Seven. One of six still alive. And I'm ready to fight.
Until 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.
"Abbiamo perso una battaglia. Ma vinceremo la guerra." «Eravamo sicuri di vincere, e invece abbiamo rischiato di perdere tutto. Perché non eravamo pronti. Dal giorno del nostro arrivo sulla Terra, siamo rimasti nascosti, lontani gli uni dagli altri, in attesa di sviluppare i nostri poteri. Adesso ci siamo riuniti, ma uno di noi manca ancora all’appello: il Numero Cinque. Non sappiamo chi sia né dove si trovi, tuttavia una cosa è certa: ha bisogno di noi. Perché loro hanno preso il Numero Uno in Malesia. Il Numero Due in Inghilterra. Il Numero Tre in Kenya. E li hanno uccisi. Io sono il Numero Quattro. Sono il prossimo della lista, ma i nostri nemici non oseranno darmi la caccia ora che non sono più solo. Perciò dobbiamo trovare il Numero Cinque. Prima che lo facciano loro. Senza di lui, non abbiamo nessuna speranza. Con lui, saremo imbattibili. Abbiamo perso una battaglia. Ma vinceremo la guerra…»
In the fifth installment of the bestselling I Am Number Four series, the Garde face devastating losses. Number Five has betrayed them, Eight is lost, and Ella has been kidnapped, leaving the team scattered. In Chicago, John forms an unexpected alliance with Adam, a Mogadorian defector who knows their secrets and the location of their command base near Washington, DC. However, during their assault, John discovers that the Mogadorians have initiated their ultimate invasion. Meanwhile, Six, Nine, and Marina navigate the Florida Everglades, pursuing the traitorous Five. Marina develops a new Legacy that empowers her to fight back, but her desire for revenge risks consuming her. Though the Garde appears fractured, they remain determined to resist. As long as one member stands, the battle for Earth's survival continues. This thrilling young adult series appeals to fans of action-packed science fiction, comparable to The Fifth Wave, The Maze Runner, and Ender’s Game. The fight for Earth rages on, with more adventures in the series and an exciting spin-off, Generation One, waiting to be explored.
For years the Garde have fought the Mogadorians in secret, but now the invasion has begun. If the Garde can't find a way to stop the Mogs, humanity will suffer the same fate as the Lorien: annihilation. When the Elders sent the Garde to Earth, they had a plan -- one which the Garde are finally starting to understand. A group of the Garde traveled to an ancient pyramid in Mexico where they awoke a power that had been hidden for generations. Now this power can save the world or destroy it. It will all depend on who wields it
John Smith, known as Number Four, has the power to eliminate the leader of the Mogodorians but needs all who have Legacies to form an army for a final showdown
