The Power of Six audiobook

The Power of Six (Lorien Legacies #2), Pittacus LoreLorien Legacies is a series of young adult science fiction books, written by James Frey, Jobie Hughes, and formerly, Greg Boose, under the collective pseudonym Pittacus Lore.The story is told by two members of the Garde: Number Seven (Marina), who is hiding at a convent in Spain, and Number Four (John Smith), who is on the run with Sam, Number Six, and Bernie Kosar (John Smith's Chimæra). 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.Elsewhere, John, Six, BK (Bernie Kosar), and Sam continue evading the police. 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. When John and Sarah meet, the FBI appear and arrest John, putting him and Sam in a prison near Washington DC. 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. Marina and Adelina are surprised to learn that Ella is Loric, and the stalker Mogadorian following Marina is actually Ella's Cepan (Crayton). 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. Together, they all escape to a lake where Crayton has a Chimæra waiting to help them. As they battle the Mogadorians at the lake, Six arrives at the scene and helps them win the battle. Afterwards, Six makes plans with the others to find the other Garde and the rest of the Chimæras. However, Crayton warns that their successes in battle will alert the Mogadorian ruler, Setrákus Ra, to join the fight.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.تاریخ نخستین خوانش: روز بیستم ماه جولای سال 2014 میلادیکتاب دوم از سری میراث لورین با عنوان قدرت شش، اثری از تیم دونفره ی: «جیمز فری»، و «جابی هوگز» است، که نخستین بار در سال 2010 میلادی توسط انتشارات «هارپرکالینز» منتشر شد. خط اصلی داستان درباره ی یک گروه «نه نفره»، از موجودات بیگانه ی فضایی است، که مجبور به فرار، از سیاره ی بسیار دور خود می‌شوند، و سر از زمین درمی‌آورند. آنها زمانی تصمیم به فرار می‌گیرند، که گروهی از موجودات رقیب، به سیاره آنها یورش، و آنرا اشغال می‌کنند. این «نه9 موجود فضایی» که در روی زمین پنهان شده‌ اند، خود را به شکل «نه دانش‌آموز دبیرستانی» درمی‌آورند، اما زندگی آنها روی کره ی زمین، با آرامش همراه نیست. «موجودات فضایی رقیب» که متوجه فرار آنها به کره زمین شده‌ اند، راهی زمین می‌شوند، تا آنها را پیدا کرده، و دوباره به سیاره ی خود برگردانند. کتاب جلد ندوم از یک سری شش جلدی است. «من او را در اخبار دیده ام. داستانهای مربوط به آنچه در اوهایو رخ داده را دنبال کنید. جان اسمیت، آنجا است، فرار میکند. برای جهان، او یک راز است. اما به نظر من ... او یکی از ما نه نفر است با ما به اینجا آمده، اما گاهی اوقات نمیدانم زمان ما را تغییر داده است - اگر همه ما هنوز به رسالت خود ایمان داشته باشیم. چگونه میتوانم بدانم؟ شش نفر از ما مانده است. ما در حال پنهان کردن، مخلوط کردن، جلوگیری از تماس با یکدیگر هستیم...؛ اما میراث ما در حال توسعه است، و به زودی خواهیم جنگید؛ آیا جان شماره چهار است و آیا در ظاهر او نشانه هایی هست که منتظر آن بودم؟ و در مورد شماره پنج و شش چطور؟ آیا یکی از آنها میتواند همان دختر موی سرسوخته با چشمان طوفانی، از رویاهای من باشد؟ دختری با قدرتهایی که فراتر از هر چیزی است که بتوانم تصور کنم؟ دختری که شاید آنقدر قوی باشد که بتواند شش نفر از ما را گرد هم بیاورد؟ آنها شماره یک را در مالزی گرفتند. شماره دو در انگلیس. و شماره سوم در کنیا. آنها سعی کردند شماره چهار را در اوهایو بگیرند و شکست خوردند. من شماره هفت هستم یکی از شش نفر هنوز زنده است. و من آماده جنگ هستم.»؛ ا. شربیانی

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.

I think I may have actually enjoyed this book more than the first in the series! Scratch that, I definitely enjoyed it more! I was actually hesitant to start it because I enjoyed the first so much and didn't see how this one could live up to it. But not only did it live up to it, it completely blew it out of the water! This book is pure action from the very first second, with the group on the run from the authorities. And we're also introduced to a second view point, another Loric in Spain and it only gets more and more interesting and crazy from there! I really loved getting to know more about the remaining Loric, their Legacies, their Chests and most of all, the Mogadorians! Everything about this series is so damn interesting, I'm officially completely and totally under its spell! There were some crazy reveals and events that literally had my mind spinning and my jaw dropping, especially right at the very end! I'm really really loving this series and I can't wait to dive into the next book and see what it brings!

Okay review time. It took me FOUR days to read this book. Meeeee! Speedy Gonzalez of readers took FOUR days to read this. I just knew in my heart that this book would end me. It kinda did. Like a lot.4.5 stars for sure! *SPOILERS BELOW SPOILERS BELOW SPOILERS *what the fuck is happening to Sam?! Nine is seems crazy but i'm intrigued! Marina kinda annoyed me at first but damn the girl can breathe underwater and heal just about anything what evennnnnn!! And the way she protects ELLA I cry I cry. Six ahhh my favorite. I mean cmon she is the only one willing to accept all the shitty things happening. And has a clear head of what to do next. Plus I love that she has to save the guys asses all the time ! John. Sweet baby John. Keep your loric hormones in check you have a world to save. This isn't I love her and her. I just want them both. I feel guilty for being attractive to both of them. HUSH you are like what 17? You can like who ever you damn please. That loric only love one person bullshit is a NO GO on earth so chill. But damn your powers are coming in strong. Sam. MY OTHER FAVORITE IF NOT MY NUMBER ONE IN THIS WHOLE SERIES SO FAR. I just love him so much. And his loyalty knows no bounds. He is just a sweet cinnamon roll. I just want to hug him forever. And give him all the galaxies. And i am sososososososoo worried about him it's killing me to not know. And HE KNOWS HOW TO FIGHT AND SHOOT NOW OH YEAH. Sarah? i hate you. Bernie Kosar *pet voice* WHOSE A GOOD LITTLE CHAEMERA (or however its spelled) YOU ARE OH YES YOU ARE *heart eyes* The powers and depth of history or just any thing Loric or Legacies related continues to blow my mind.This is for sure one sci-fi series that does not annoy me. That evil leader scares me. And talk about creepy cave! Over and out.

Seriously loving this series! Crazy interesting. I cannot wait to read about the other Garde!

I got my hands on an advanced reading copy of this and I eagerly tore into it. After a bit of a slow start, the story soon picks up the pace ending in an all out battle with a few epic twists. The Power of Six introduces us to another one of the nine and half of the story is narrated from her point of view. There are plenty of moments that had me on the edge of my seat and we finally find out what was in the second spaceship that left Lorien in John's visions. Just as interesting and addictive as the first and I'm trying not to think about the long wait before the next - there are too many unanswered questions and storylines that are crucial to the plot. A fantastic installment in the Lorien Legacies.

I enjoyed this book, it was fast paced and a fairly easy read with some great twists and turns. I really enjoyed how it answered some of my questions but also created new ones that I am wondering about now. Below in bold Italics are the answers and new questions I have. I read the first book and loved it! I am really excited for the second book. I want to do some speculating:1) The power of six, has to be the story of them finding the six remaining Loriens. But that doesn't mean that they will find all six of them in the this book. Maybe it is about them discovering what the six coming together will create? (view spoiler)[ I was right it wasn't about them finding all the other six but the beginning of it and in some ways about the powers of six as well. (hide spoiler)]2) Who were the mysterious people in the second ship with the baby?Is there a seventh child out there with a whole bunch of the Kimera animals helping to protect him/her? (is she the dark haired girl in number 7's dream)(view spoiler)[ Ah Ha I was write she is another Lorien in fact she is the tenth child who was suppose to come to earth. 7's dreams are about 6 though not the 10th child. (hide spoiler)]3) What about the Elders from Lorien they just disappeared that doesn't mean they are dead. Where are they when will they return to the story?(view spoiler)[ They are dead they sacrficed themselves to give the children the power they need to take back their planet and defend earth. Because of their sacrifice the remaining lorien children or Garde will be able to have extra powers and be some of the strongest that has ever been as well they are meant to take the place of the elders and become the new elders of the planet. (hide spoiler)]4) I think that the book was way better then the movie, I think they messed with too many things in the movie for me have enjoyed it as much as I wanted too. They missed so many oportunities to make it amazing. The best part was the fight scenes at the end, but the movie that played in my head while reading this book was way better then the one they made. I thought they totally lost the escence of Henri in the movie, he was one of my favorite characters. He wasn't a warrior he was a brainiac, an educator, not a warrior?5) I think they have so many opportunities with this book I can't wait to see where they go. So many unanswered questions like WHO IS SAM????And who was the mysterious guy who sent that info to the conspiracy magazine?(view spoiler)[ SAM is the son of the human man whom helped John and Henri when they first arived on earth. Still wondering who the guy is that sent the mystery info wondering if it is 10's protector since he isn't really on their radar or if Sam's dad is alive and in hiding some where. (hide spoiler)](view spoiler)[ So what are your new thoughts, here are my new questions. 6) Are the Mogs of the same race as the Loriens is that what 10's protector was talking about or hinted at, and who is that evil huge Mog?7)Where are 5 and 8 now that we know 9 was in the mog mountain when 4 went to rescue the chests. Who's chest do they have open? and How did they open it? Where is 4's chest? 8)What will they do to Sam when they figure out who he is? Will he find his father in there or will he find some of the Loriens who might have more answers. 9)Did 6 knowingly or unknowingly open her chest for them? I don't think she is a trator but there is something missing from her story that feels like we are yet to learn about. Maybe one of the first 3 opened their chest before they died and that is how the Mogs are able to track the other Garde. (hide spoiler)]What are your speculations??? I am not as interested in the love story as much as I am interested in the plot and mystery of what could happen?

This was so much better than the first one. I loved the dual storyline and how they sort of tied together in the end, but it was also really frustrating because the perspective often shifted away when I was so into that particular plot.The one thing that kind of annoyed me is, surprise surprise, Sarah. All the times John brought up how much he missed her and how she was definitely his One True Love because Lorics fall in Love once for life...I just...U G H. And I thought the love triangle thing with Six was kind of unnecessary.Going back to Sarah again, I’m also kind of annoyed that one of the biggest plot catalysts was something so stupid: (view spoiler)[John just HAD to go back and see her because he was so “in looooove” (hide spoiler)], but other than that, the plot was exciting and I’m always down to read about a life on the run.

i'll finish this series as soon as i finish my currently reading books, yup

Oh. My. Freaking. God. This is me, standing up on my chair applauding an empty room like an idiot. 10 minutes ago, I read the last page of THE POWER OF SIX. Nine minutes ago, I called my mother in hysterics telling her she must--MUST--read the I AM NUMBER FOUR series. Here's how the convo went:Mom: Sounds like you loved them. I'll read them.Me: When. Now?Mom: I'll buy them when they're all out.Me: No. You will buy the first two today and then loathe the world that the third isn't out yet. Mom: False. Me: If you don't buy these books right freaking now I'll disown you as a mother.Mom: I'll think about it. (Long pause). You still there?Me: I just bought them and shipped them to your house. You will read them. *Click*To the world, I say this now: This series is the best series I have ever read. It pains my heart to admit this, but it's better than Twilight. Better than Hunger Games. Better than an open tab at my favorite restaurant after spending 3 years in a dungeon-y prison. Buy it. Do it! And then email me so we can freak out over how awesome it is!!!!

I quite enjoyed rereading this volume as part of me reading the series in one go.

Gotta say, I prefer this book much more than the original. John wasn't as much as a douche, though he had his moments. As for Sarah.... THAT WITCH! HOW COULD SHE?!? Oohhh, I almost threw the book I was so angry!!! Anyway, I was way excited about meeting the other numbers. Marina will have to take some getting used to... But I instantly loved Ella, she was so cute and amazing. This book had wayy more action than the first, which is perfect to me. However John made stupid decisions as usual and of course more people paid for his actions. You'd think he would learn by now. Sam, while growing into a wonderful character, was a little annoying and honestly I don't see what he's adding to these books. The plot has thickened concerning him, so hopefully in the next book we'll learn more about his part. Six felt like a secondary character in this book, same with the first. Kinda wishing her point of view was told instead of John's. I have yet to read I Am Number Four: The Lost Files: Six's Legacy, though I plan to do so soon!I'm still invested in this series though I seriously have a problem with Number Four. Awaiting the next book!
