The Passage meets Ender’s Game in an epic new series from award-winning author Rick Yancey.
After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.
Now, it’s the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Whohave scattered Earth’s last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie’s only hopefor rescuing her brother—or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up.
Review
They came to take us. To conquer humanity and make this world their own.
Cassie is now by herself. Her father was gone; killed by The Others (aliens). Her little brother taken by soldiers. What she has left is nothing but the determination to get her brother back, as she promised. Despite her belief "To stay alone is to stay alive", survival isn't as easy as it seems when you're alone. She needs Evan Walker's help to get to her destination, not only that but also to survive the 5th Wave.
