About this ebook

In Pittacus Lore’s The Rise of Nine, third in the New York Times bestselling I Am Number Four series, the stakes are higher than ever as John, Six, and Seven try desperately to find the rest of the Garde before it’s too late.
 
The Mogadorians who destroyed the planet Lorien continue to hunt down the Garde, the small group of Loric survivors who have taken refuge on Earth. The Garde must come together. They are Lorien and Earth’s only hope.
 
During the dangerous mission at the Mogadorian base in West Virginia, John found and rescued Nine. But even with their combined powers, special abilities known as Legacies, the pair barely escaped with their lives—and they lost Sam in the process.
 
In order to save our world and their own, John and Nine must join forces with Six and Seven who have been battling the Mogadorians in Spain, and who are now trying to locate Number Eight in India.
 
Power in numbers will save us all.

Ratings and reviews

The book is good, but I highly suggest that you *Don't* get the ebook version. Why? Because this book is told from three different points of view, and the only way to distinguish them is by the fonts in the actual book. These different fonts do not show up in the ebook version. If you do decide to get an ebook version anyways, note that each chapter is narrated by a different character.

it was a great book the entire way through until the end. even so, i cant weight fro the next one to come out

I was shocked at how much I wanted to read this book. The first two was good but this one did great of recreating the immaturity of kids on their own trying to survive. They hit it right on the head. I will be buying the next book pronto
