When is power of six coming out




















Number Ten! No pre-warning, no solid explanation. James Frey: That's a good twist. Jess: No, a good twist is Snape being a good guy. A good twist is Christopher discovering his mother is alive. These things had foreshadowing: it didnt stick out at the time, but we noticed them later. Having a 'Number Ten' is not a fucking twist, its cheating , and for that I hate you.

Jess: No. Your shit writing made any suspense thinner than Nicole Richie. For example, when Marina heard that Miranda Marquez, a girl who she looks exactly alike, was found strangled. This was supposed to make us scared of Mogodorians coming. Trying to build suspense. Yeah, it might have worked if you had said they looked alike before the line after her death. There are many more examples, but quite frankly, I hate talking to you.

Now Im going home to start and finish the next book in the series before bed time. Well, Im not going to be a sucker and give you any more of my money. Im not buying any more Lorien Legacies books. Had I been American, I would'nt have even brought this one. The US cover is the fugliest thing I have ever seen! We'll be back after this short ad break with John Smith himself. Stay tuned!

Jess: Hello, welcome back to the show. You were awesome in every way. Now you suck. John Smith: Sorry? Jess: I hate you. Mainly your decision making. I mean, did you honestly think it was a good idea to catch up with Sarah? You couldnt see that ending badly at all-heavy sarcasm. John Smith: Thats one poor decision. Jess: Or dragging Sam Goode along on your adventure. That boy is the biggest waste of space I have ever read about-more later. Or how about that time you ran straight into the blue Mogodorian forcefield, knowing full well it would knock you out and made you feel sick.

That totally reminded me of the time Patrick Dangerfield concussed himself by running straight into the goal post against the Western Bulldogs. Oh, and another terrible decision was when you and Six saved that innocent woman from her drunken husband, with the whole 'no innocent people should be hurt' vibe going on. Then you throw the Mogodorian tracking devise on the back of an innocent mans truck and laugh about it.

Contradicting much? John Smith: I wasnt thinking clearly Jess: Oh, and at one stage you say: "I feel sad". Really, thats the best you could come up with? John Smith: I tell it as it is. Jess: Anywho, lets get to the juicy stuff that all our viewers want to know.

John Smith: Pretty cool Jess: Lets get the story straight. A small school, in a tiny town, in Ohio is found wrecked in the morning. There is ash everywhere and entire buildings are ruined. What does this sound like, to normal human beings? John Smith: A fire? Jess: Yes, so why does everyone instantly presume its a terrorist attack.

John Smith: Are you saying my life in the past few weeks is Im on the run for nothing? Jess: Im saying you're on the run for the most stupid reason! No sane human being instantly concludes what would look like a fire is a terrorist attack! The school down the road from me burnt down last year, true story. All that was left was rubble and ash. Does this mean that police should instantly assume crazy terrorists are at work in Adelaide. John Smith: I Jess: No, let me continue: Then when they finally do catch you, Top of the FBI's Most Wanted List for attacking a school , they put you in a cell which has bars, not a solid wall, and guarded by one, single guard.

Then the guard immerses you in conversation. John Smith: I started talking to him, actually. Jess: And he responded, conversation! When they had Osama Bin Laden, I dont think he was guarded by a single security officer, who responded to Osama's conversation starters.

That whole episode was so unrealistic! Its possible to make fiction realistic. Also, on a totally unrelated note, what the fuck is up with your love triangle? Audience: Jess has only said that word once on goodreads. Jess Love triangles are so unnecessary. Why does every YA novel need to have them. There was no need for it, and you shared no chemistry with either.

It was literally: "I like Six, but I have to love Sarah. Therefore, my life is to hard and I should go complain and bore everyone with my forced romance. Get a proper sub-plot and dont come back until you do. Jess: Thanks for coming, and thanks for not killing me. Firstly, I love your matrix style trench coat.

Unnamed Evil Mogodorian Alien Cheers. Jess: Secondly, whats the deal dude? Why are you lot the worst antagonists of all time? Unnamed Evil Mogodorian Alien Thats a bit harsh.

Jess: Its true. There were thousands of you, and you cant kill two Lorics and a human boy. You're badass aliens, why cant you kill him? Unnamed Evil Mogodorian Alien No comment. Jess: Also, why did you strangle Miranda Marquez, the chick who looks like Number 7? Are turning peeps to ash with mega guns and shit not cool any more?

Jess: Seriously dude, early on when you lit fire to the house Sam was in, I was so happy. I was ready to convert to your side, I seriously thought you'd just killed Sam, but then he slipped through your fingers.

Now that you've got him captive, please torture the shit out of him. That means Sam will probably escape our evil alien base of evilness. Jess: Im feeling for ya. Hey, Ive got Sam from his cage via skype next, but he is a bigger waste of space than the extra three 'Mortal Instruments' books, and I really dont want to talk to that guy. Unnamed Evil Mogodorian Alien Why so? Jess: He's just dumb. I mean, when he and John had an hour of invisibility to sneak into your base, he set his alarm watch for 60 minutes, so it went off as soon as he was visible again.

Why not set it for fifty minutes, so when it vibrates they know to get out of there quickly! Also, when he needed to go back to Paradise to check the sun dial, he forced Six and Four to go back with him. This resulted in them getting caught. Why on earth would he have not just called Sarah's mobile, and ask her to check out the necessary stuff. She could have told him her findings, and they're all safe!

Unnamed Evil Mogodorian Alien I'm hearing you! I dont associate with such fools either. Jess: Thank you! Say, want to catch up for a coffee after the show? Unnamed Evil Mogodorian Alien Sure. And I'll show you where I get my trench coats!

Jess: Cool beans! Lets go right now. Jess: Outstanding. Well, thats the show for tonight, thanks for your company. I'm Jessica, and I'll see you next week! And cut. First Review: January 7, The description of this book says its about 'Number 7'.

I want to read about John Smith, and his friend Sam and his kick-but side kick, Number 6! If 7 hogs this book, I will be really upset! And Sarah Hart had better make an appearance somewhere, or I will be devastated!

But anyway, I am super-amazingly-incredibly excited about this one. I want it now!!!! The reasons for this are: 1 we just met Number Six at the end of the previous book. Its to early to introduce a new main character, knowing nothing about Six. We need to learn something and let her develop. If this is true, the second book seems way to early to re-unite the entire gang. In the midst of their search, there will be a mega-giant twist about Number Six, and someone will do something bad to inflict trouble on the group.

But yes, I am very excited. View all comments. Feb 24, Migs Austria rated it it was amazing Shelves: lorien-legacies. I've finally read the highly anticipated sequel to I Am Number Four. I love how the author wrote it in two perspectives: John's and Marina's. The Power of Six is much more action-packed than the first.

There are some issues of betrayal and love and sacrifices. Six, you badass alien, I think I like you too. It's definitely worth the wait and when's the third book coming out? View all 10 comments. Nov 02, P rated it liked it Shelves: young-adult. I think most of her parts were boring. I'm curious, in spite of the title about Number Six, why this book is all about Number Seven. Her character is not strong as the others, and not for my taste, yet I hope that Pittacus put her here for some reason.

I just hope. I was quite disappointed with this book, it should have done better with its fabulous plot and pace like the first one. I hated John, too, he was changed and very shilly-shally, he's supposed to be more dependent after all he has been through. View all 7 comments. Feb 11, Arlene rated it it was amazing Shelves: young-adult , read , favorites , sci-fi.

Rating Clarification: 4. There are only six of us left. Six of us against any number of them. And no way of knowing how we might possibly find one another. Strength in numbers. The power of six Now this is what I call adrenaline pumping, high impact action.

Hell, even I felt hunted! There was just so much happening that by the time I was done with The Power of Six I felt absolutely exhausted. Loved it!! Bring it on!! This book kicks off immediately after the disastrous events that took place in book one; and Sam, Six and Four are not only on the run from the Mogs, but now the FBI is after them for what went down in Paradise Ohio.

This loyal trio uses their time on the road to train and try to uncover the secrets to their past that will hopefully help them see a future in Loric. What unfolds is a series of dangerous encounters between members of the Garde and Mogs and a ton of action that keeps you on the edge of your seat.

It sucked to see this Cepan let number Seven down by giving up on her mission to train and help Marina prepare for survival in this battle. In addition, what Sarah did to Four I feel was unnecessary. The two major twists in this book really changed the direction of the story as we find not only the two new members of the Garde Seven and Nine but also discover there was a second ship the left Loric with number Ten.

Overall, the characters are fierce, the narration is fast paced, and the storyline is by far out. The power this group can combine is going to bring this end game to a collision course of epic proportions.

While John, Six and Sam try to stay ahead of the Mogadorians while searching for the other surviving Loric, Marina searches for news of John after his heroic battle at the school that came at the end of I Am Number Four. Marina is living at a convent with her Cepan Adelina when a Mogadorian discovers her location then continuously spies on her.

This increased risk moves her priority of finding Four to the top of the list. A seven-year-old girl named Ella moves to the orphanage and Marina befriends her, asking her to help find her Chest. Meanwhile, Marina tries to convince her Cepan to help open her Loric Chest and take responsibility for her role as Cepan, but to no avail. Ella soon finds the hidden Chest, and she and Marina retrieve it after a scuffle with four girls from the convent. During this fight Ella breaks her arm, and Marina discovers her healing legacy.

Later, Marina drugs Adelina and finally gets her Chest open. After being pursued by the police one night, John finally decides to open his Chest, which contains the letter Henri gave him. Once everybody takes a look at the contents, they discover the items leave them clueless. However, one object notified the Mogadorians of their location, and provoked an attack on the house, where they narrowly escape. Later, John reads Henri's letter and finds out the Mogadorians have captured Sam's father.

Sam remembers his father telling him of a secret Lorien base in his backyard, and they set off to find it. Upon finding it, they are intercepted by Mogadorians, and the party splits up: Six and BK stay and fight, while John and Sam search the base.

Once receiving the base's contents, John and Sam flee, ending up very close to Sarah's house. They suspect Sarah had notified the FBI before they met up. As Mogadorians catch up to John and Sam in prison, Six helps them escape, though she is very angry they left her during the battle in Paradise.

After escaping, she shows them an image on the internet where someone has burned loric symbols onto a mountain in Spain. Soon they decide on a plan: Six will go to Spain to help the newly discovered Marina Number seven , and Sam, BK, and John will go to the Mogadorian's base in a hollowed-out mountain near West Virginia to retrieve John's chest. As soon as Marina opens her chest, the Mogadorians are notified and catch up with Marina and Adelina as they try to escape the convent.

During the chaos, Adelina is murdered while trying to help Marina. Marina, after being saved by Crayton and Ella, learns that Ella is the tenth member of the Garde. She escaped on a second ship, and has disguised herself by age-shifting. As they battle the Mogadorians at the lake, Six arrives at the scene and helps them win the battle. Meanwhile, Sam and John use a stone from John's chest to transfer Six's invisibility to them and sneak into the Mogadorian mountain base.

They grab both John's Chest and another, which turns out to be that of Nine, who is imprisoned in the mountain. They run out of invisibility, but manage to free Nine and escape the mountain with everyone but Sam, who was caught and had to be left behind. Setrakus Ra arrives, and as Nine is about to attack him, he hides in the base, unreachable.

Nine, John, and BK head north, with nowhere to go since the address for meeting Six was in Sam's pocket. May 15, Aj the Ravenous Reader rated it really liked it Shelves: sci-fi , reread , dystopia , physically-owned-books. It took me a while to get a copy of this book and at one point, I sort of lost my enthusiast in reading this sequel to I am Number Four, because I guess, I waited too long. But when I read the book ,it was as if I haven't left the prequel at all.

This book grabbed me from hanging off the cliff as the members of the garde gradually find one another. I just felt a bit annoyed at Four for his fickle emotions for both Sarah and Six. View all 22 comments. May 26, Angela added it Shelves: fantasy , ya , arc. I received an ARC copy of this book from the publisher for a honest, fair review. This is me being honest; I'm not sure if it's fair I did not like the first book of this series, and I had decided not to waste my time on the sequel.

I should have gone with my gut reaction and stayed far, far away from this book. Why did I read it? The better question is, why did I bother seeing the movie after disliking the book so greatly? The answer to that question is simpler, the tickets were free. How do I received an ARC copy of this book from the publisher for a honest, fair review. How doth one pass up free stuff? Oh I know, when they lead to crap. Where was I? Oh yes. So I saw the movie and thought, hey, this didn't suck complete arse, I wonder what is going to happen next?!?!

Then we Bookworms got a free copy of The Power of Six from the publisher and I thought, Self, how bad could it really, truly be? Give this series another chance! The Power of Six switches back and forth between two different perspectives that of Number 4 and Number 7. The only link between the two perspectives is that they are both Lorien. Their stories never coherently messed together and going back and forth was jarring and often took me out of the story.

Forced love triangles- I despise them when they are well done, and I loath them when they are forced into a story just for the hell of having one. This book lacked passion, tone, voice, and in general, felt like a robot wrote it. It just made me sick to my stomach. Once again, I spent most of the time I was reading this book literally and figuratively twiddling my thumbs. When things did happen they were so cliche and just empty that I couldn't help the eye rolls not to mention snorts.

They were all one-dimensional, saying and doing things that just didn't made sense. John Number 4 might be the worst protagonist ever written.

I just feel like there is something wonky about these books, their exploitation of the Twilight craze, and their willingness to be formulaic and barely mediocre just to make a buck. I'm sorta ashamed of myself for reading them. It is rare that I will "hate" on a book and even rarer that I will do it publicly. I feel that every writer deserves respect, that their stories are their children.

But in this case, I feel that the authors of these books are not only giving a bad name to YA literature, but taking their fans for a ride. They don't seem to have a passion for the craft, but simply a passion for the almighty dollar. This isn't their child, it's their meal ticket. It's shameful. It's sad.

And it makes me all ranty and angry. The end. View all 17 comments. Loved this sequel! We meet more of the Legacies in this book and I loved every one of them! I love the interaction between the characters and oh my god this book was so griping it's crazy!

The story is definitely moving forward fast and there was so much action just like the first book. My only complaint about this book was the romance was a bit cringeworthy and childish and I'm also not loving Sarah anymore. She needs to leave. Other than that, the book was all kinds of fun! The first volume I sort of read by mistake last year but it was ok. Obviously I am not exactly the target audience so would not expect my excitement to have me rush to the bookshop and batter on the door till number two volume was handed to me but even i was amazed that i ambled along quite merrily for months without giving the slightest stuff about number 4 and his collected band of Mog battlers.

And is it only me who keeps imagining dear old Judith Kerr's creation standing in the middle of th The first volume I sort of read by mistake last year but it was ok.

And is it only me who keeps imagining dear old Judith Kerr's creation standing in the middle of the book yowling 'why, why all this hate for poor little me? Let me list some points to ponder. Actress Interstellar. Mackenzie Christine Foy was born 10 November Although Mackenzie does look very young, she has grown a lot recently google image and is obviously very talented proven in Twilight. I imaged someone blonde as Ella even though the book says she has red hair.

I actually imagined the young Elle Fanning to play the part but obviously that can't be done so please suggest what you think!! He has a younger brother, Dylan. Also he isn't fat but built. A lot like Zac Efron I think this could be a tiny bit off though. I think maybe Josh Hutcherson would match this role because his height is like Fives. If Zac were shorter and Josh was more built they'd be closer to the appearance of five but either him or Josh.

Open to suggestions btw! Actor The Lobster. Colin Farrell is one of Ireland's biggest stars in Hollywood and abroad. His film presence has been filled with memorable roles that range from an inwardly tortured hit man, to an adventurous explorer, a determined-but-failing writer, and the greatest military leader in history.

Farrell was born on Crayton He's one of those celebrities known for having a moustache and so does Crayton! They also both have dark hair and appear around their 40s.

Also the dark eyebrows match. Actress Charmed. Holly moved to New York at the tender age of 7. Already her stunning looks had turned heads, resulting in jobs in print ads and commercials. Soon these experiences lead to a desire to act, a dream shared by Holly's mother, who herself was only After a few bit parts, Holly landed a leading role She may look young in some photos but recently she's starred as a mother in the series 'Pretty Little Liars" and with some grey hair streaks she could look just as Adelina was described.

Or not but either way I think she's a great fit. Actress Carriers. Kiernan Brennan Shipka is an American actress. Caruso mentioned during an interview in that Dreamworks was exploring ways to continue the franchise, but nothing appears to have come from those conversations. Considering the amount of time that's passed since the release of the first movie, a direct follow-up is unlikely.

There's a chance I Am Number Four could be remade or retooled as TV series in the future, but the chances of a sequel featuring the return of Alex Pettyfer and Teresa Palmer are pretty low.

A part-time hobby soon blossomed into a career when he discovered he really loved writing about movies, TV and video games — he even arguably had a little bit of talent for it. He has written words for Den of Geek, Collider, The Irish Times and Screen Rant over the years, and can discuss anything from the MCU - where Hawkeye is clearly the best character - to the most obscure cult b-movie gem, and his hot takes often require heat resistant gloves to handle.
