Publisher's summary

The unabridged downloadable audiobook edition of The Power of Six, Pittacus Lore's second instalment in the pulse-racing Lorien Legacies series - now a major movie franchise for Dreamworks.

'We are the last defence.I 've seen him on the news. Followed the stories about what happened to John Smith. To the world he's a mystery, but to me...he's one of us. Nine of us came here, but sometimes I wonder if time has changed us, if we all still believe in our mission. There are six of us left. We're hiding, blending in, avoiding contact with one another, but our Legacies are developing, and soon we'll be ready to fight. Is John Number Four - and is his appearance the sign I've been waiting for? And what about Number Five and Six? Could one of them be the raven-haired girl with the stormy eyes from my dreams? The girl with powers that are beyond anything I could ever imagine? The girl who might be strong enough to bring the six of us together?

'They caught Number One in Malaysia. Number Two in England. And Number Three in Kenya. They tried to catch Number Four in Ohio... and failed. I am Number Seven. And I'm ready to fight.'

Great Follow up

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I enjoyed this book as much as the first one in the series. It extended on the characters we knew and delved into new ones.

What did you like best about this story?

It is read well and the book is worded well so I actually can visual the events happening as I listen.

Which character – as performed by Neil Kaplan and Marisol Ramirez – was your favorite?

Six!! Gotta love her.

Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?

It made me worry.... oh no will they escape, what happens next :-)

Any additional comments?

fantastic series, I cant wait to read them all.

This series is a "must read"

Any additional comments?

Once again I enjoyed this book and cant wait to continue the series. I think this series rates along with the " Hunger Games" books and know that teenage readers would enjoy these books

Start of a long journey!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes and in fact I have! It's a great follow up to the first book, and WOW the story went up a notch!

What was one of the most memorable moments of The Power of Six?

Oooh, to tell that is to tell the story! But, one feels that pain of the characters and that stands out for me.

Any additional comments?

There is definitely a sense in this book, this is just the tip of a very big iceberg. As with many series, I felt cheated that it ended on a cliffhanger, and hungry for the next book!

Definately one for younger adults

Would you recommend The Power of Six to your friends? Why or why not?

I would recommend this book to younger readers who had seen or read the first book,

Did the narration match the pace of the story?

Some of the voices didn't match the characters as i had imagined them

Do you think The Power of Six needs a follow-up book? Why or why not?

Definitely need to read the following books as i was left up in the air regarding the outcome of all the characters.

Any additional comments?

One of the few books in which i had a growing dislike for the main character (John Smith aka No.4 ) I found his constant whining and selfishness increasingly irritating.

Wait till the entire series is complete...

Any additional comments?

This book moves very slowly and leaves you hanging... It does tie up spme loose ends from the first book, but you are left with way to many questions than answers
