The Last Star

The Final Book of The 5th Wave

The highly-anticipated finale to the New York Times bestselling 5th Wave series.

The enemy is Other. The enemy is us. They’re down here, they’re up there, they’re nowhere. They want the Earth, they want us to have it. They came to wipe us out, they came to save us.

But beneath these riddles lies one truth: Cassie has been betrayed. So has Ringer. Zombie. Nugget. And all 7.5 billion people who used to live on our planet. Betrayed first by the Others, and now by ourselves.

In these last days, Earth’s remaining survivors will need to decide what’s more important: saving themselves . . . or saving what makes us human.

The best star

I can't begin to thank the author for giving us such a great final book to this amazing story. I loved that many things about this story. But I gotta say I'm glad for how Cassie ended. It left it for so much interpretation and hope. I liked that Evan is helping out and mayfly is such a new and inspiring character (mayfly is not Cassie in this case) I liked that there were no loose ends and although some of my favorite characters had to die I wasn't as depressed as I thought I'd be. All in all a great story.

Yancy is a great writer. This is not his best.

I don't know if it was the YA theme (overblown teenage angst) or the predictable plot with teenagers saving the world, but I really, really, really struggled to finish this. For really great stories, read Yancy's other series. I'm still a huge fan of his.

what a great book

what a good series and a great ending to the series gives you hope in humanity

Overall a really good series

I really like this book\series. It has great characters,action,suspense,&description. I just did not like the overall ending of the last book, I understand part of the reasons why the author did what he did, but I am still not crazy about it. Part of me hopes for another book,just to see what happens afterwards. It was a very imaginative series,and I enjoyed it!

Hard to get into

I loved the first two books but this one was especially hard to get into. It was also difficult to differentiate between the female characters throughout the story.
