About this ebook

In the riveting sequel to the New York Times bestselling The 5th Wave, Cassie and her crew have survived four waves of destruction aimed at eliminating humanity. With the 5th already on it way . . . will they survive once more?

“Heart-pounding pacing, lyrical prose, and mind-bending twists.”—The New York Times Book Review

“Impressively improves on the excellent beginning of the trilogy.”—USA Today

How do you rid the Earth of seven billion humans? Rid the humans of their humanity.

Cassie Sullivan and her companions lived through the Others’ four waves of destruction. Now, with the human race nearly exterminated and the 5th Wave rolling across the landscape, they face a choice: brace for winter and hope for Evan Walker’s return, or set out in search of other survivors before the enemy closes in. Because the next attack is more than possible—it’s inevitable.

No one can anticipate the depths to which the Others will sink, nor the heights to which humanity will rise, in the ultimate battle between life and death, hope and despair, love and hate.

I really enjoyed the first book and I'm half way through this one. My only drawback is the fact that 200 pages in and the group has virtually done an hour or two worth of activity. We're just getting different points of view of the same scenes. Its very well written but i hope the second half of the book contains more substantial activity.

I was really excited to find out what happens next and see where the story leads me. The book kept the suspense and action that the first book had. I also enjoyed seeing my favorite characters in the book and getting to learn more about the other side characters from the first book. The book also has more plot twists and secrets that know how to get you guess without throwing everything at you at once. What I also liked is learning more about Ringers past and how she became Ringer we all know. Though the one thing I didn’t like was the structure of the book. I wish that since the book is split into sections I wish they would let us know which character’s point of view it is. It took me awhile to figure which character I am reading about.

Great read, loved what was there, but this was just too short. This felt like half a book, hopefully book 3 is much longer and this was short because of a natural split in the story and not just to milk the series...
