Nine of us came here. We look like you. We talk like you. We live among you. But we are not you. We can do things you dream of doing. We have powers you dream of having. We are stronger and faster than anything you have ever seen. We are the superheroes you worship in movies and comic books—but we are real.

Our plan was to grow, and train, and become strong, and become one, and fight them. But they found us and started hunting us first. Now all of us are running. Spending our lives in shadows, in places where no one would look, blending in. we have lived among you without you knowing. But they know.

They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They killed them all.

I am Number Four. I am next.

One of my favorite books and series ever

I am Number Four is an incredible book. The main character is number four, which is also known as John Smith. He was sent to Earth ten years ago because his planet was destroyed and came along with eight other individuals from their planet. Along his way, he met Sarah and Sam, which were the people who he trusted and were his friends. One of my favorite part throughout this book is during the fight against the Mogadorians. I couldn’t stop reading the events that was happening because it grabbed my attention. The part where I think it was exceedingly touching is when Henri died. Overall, I really enjoyed this book and will definitely suggest this book to readers who are interested in adventure stories.

I am number four is about how a garde from the planet lorien developes his legacies and how his life is. He is number four, next in line to be killed by the mogadorians. The mogadorians are aliens that want to take over Earth. The plot of this story attracts me a lot and I also love the way the author writes the story. The author has an amazing imagination, he made up a lot of cool legacies. He made it feel so realistic.

I am number four is about how a Loric garde develop his legacies and how his life changes. The garde experienced a lot of things that he never experienced before. For example, fighting the Mogadorians and developing legacies. I like how the author plot this story and the feeling of getting hunted in the story really attracts me. I also like how to author build up the dangerous feelings in the story. It is also amazing how the author summarised and describe the legacies the character has. It makes it sound so realistic and made me so jealous.

I am Number Four by Pittacus Lore is one of my favourite book series by far. This is the first book in the Lorien Legacies series. His planet Lorien is attacked by the Mogodorians, so he and 8 other kids came to Earth, along with their Cepans, to escape. Along the way, number four (aka John) meets different humans, such as Sarah and Sam. But then Mogodorians followed him and somehow, all of his human friends are pulled into a fight with the Mogodorians. I really like Henri (John's Cepan) because he is really courageous and really devoted his life to John. One of my favourite parts in this book is when Henri is dying. That part was really touching and I even cried. I think that if you are like me and you really love science fiction books that are very adventurous and exciting, you definitely should read this! 0 Reply

This book I am Number Four written by Pittacus Lore is by far one of the most interesting book I’ve read so far. In this book the main character Number Four, is from another planet name Lorien. He came to Earth because his planet was destroyed. This character Number Four is so awesome, I think of him just like a superman, that owns all the cool super powers. My favorite part of the book is when Number four got into the fight with the Mogadorians (their greatest enemies of all time) and Number Six came to help. If you love reading about fantasy and super powers, I would recommend this book to you entirely. Read this book and you’ll find all the magic powers that makes you unable to stop reading!
