Part of Lorien Legacies, book 6
First published 2016
The Mogadorian invasion has begun, and John finds himself battling alien forces in the streets of New York City. His best friend Sam has suddenly developed a Legacy, joining a growing number of humans with newfound powers. As John and Sam hunt for Five and Nine through the chaos, they encounter another powered teenager whose loyalties remain unclear. Meanwhile, Six, Marina, and Adam sit trapped in a Mexican Sanctuary. They successfully awakened the ancient force within, but now face advancing Mogadorians with no way to warn their friends. The scattered Garde face an impossible choice. To stop the invasion, they must kill the Mogadorian leader, but his life connects directly to Ella's. Destroying one means losing both. Without finding another solution, humanity will meet the same end as the Loric people.
