John Smith is not your average teenager.

He regularly moves from town to town. He changes his name and identity. He does not put down roots. He cannot tell anyone who or what he really is. If he stops moving, those who hunt him will find and kill him.

But you can't run forever.

So when he stops in Paradise, Ohio, John decides to try and settle down. To fit in. And for the first time he makes some real friends. People he cares about - and who care about him. Never in John's short life has there been space for friendship, or even love.

But it's just a matter of time before John's secret is revealed.

He was once one of nine. Three of them have been killed.

John is Number Four. He knows that he is next . . .

Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games - I Am Number Four is the first book in Pittacus Lore's Lorien Legacies series, now a major Disney film.

Ratings and reviews

I wasn't looking to read a book but the title grabbed my attention & after reading a few pages I could not put this down! I longed for break times to return to the adventure! After taking me through a number of emotions, including a few tears along the way, I must now continue my quest for more episodes. I haven't enjoyed a good read like that in ages!

I've read this book so many times, and each time I can't put it down. It's an easy to follow book with good twists and story line.

A book and series that has shaped the person i am, i love them and cant recommend them enough to anyone. that is all if you see this and haven't read it. read it now. it is a wonderful series an engaging read and definitely worth your time.
