I had high hopes for how the series would end. Especially since I thought the first book was so well done. It is painful to give this only three stars. The Last Star (The third book of the The 5th Wave) The Infinite Sea (The second book of The 5th Wave) The 5th Wave (The first book of The 5th Wave)
"Rick Yancey sticks the (alien) landing in the action-packed finale to his The 5th Wave invasion saga. And the author gives us a major dose of girl power as well, pairing Cassie and Ringer for an uneasy alliance that provides the best moments in this fantastic series’ thought-provoking and satisfying conclusion.” ( USA Today) “Yancey's writing is just as solid and descriptive as in the first two books….What Yancey does beautifully is reveal the human condition.” () “he ending provides both satisfaction and heartbreak.” ( Publishers Weekly) “Yancey has capped off his riveting series with a perfect ending.” (TeenReads) It’s a satisfying end to an impressive trilogy, true to the characters and the world Yancey created.” ( Entertainment Weekly) “Yancey doesn’t hit the breaks for one moment, and the action is intense, but the language always stays lyrical and lovely. “A haunting, unforgettable finale.” ( Kirkus Reviews) This blistering finale proves the truth of the first two volumes: it was never about the aliens.” ( Booklist, starred review) “Yancey’s prose remains achingly precise, and this grows heavier, tighter, and more impossible to put down as the clock runs out. In these last days, Earth’s remaining survivors will need to decide what’s more important: saving themselves.or saving what makes us human. Betrayed first by the Others, and now by ourselves. And all 7.5 billion people who used to live on our planet.
But beneath these riddles lies one truth: Cassie has been betrayed.
They came to wipe us out, they came to save us. They want the Earth, they want us to have it. They’re down here, they’re up there, they’re nowhere. The highly-anticipated finale to the New York Times best-selling 5th Wave series.
