But I was wrong. Even though we have come together, we barely escaped from the Mogadorians with our lives. And now we’re in hiding, trying to figure out our next move.
The six of us are powerful—but we’re not yet strong enough to take on their entire army. We haven’t discovered the full extent of our Legacies. We haven’t learned to work together. And there’s still so much that we don’t know about the Elders or their plan for us. Time is running out, and there’s only one thing we know for certain: We need to find Number Five before they do.
They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
I am Number Four. I was supposed to be next.
But I’m still alive.
This battle is far from over."
The Lorien Legacies is basically a sci-fi series about a race of aliens called the "Loric" who were wiped out by another alien race called the "Mogadorians". The only members left of their race called the "Garde" were sent to Earth, each having numbers for names and a guard which they call their "Cepan". They all take different paths while under a protection of a charm in which as long as they remain apart, they can only be killed in order of their numbers. Each Garde possesses different powers called "Legacies". With these Legacies, they aim to stop the Mogadorians from conquering our planet and to restore their own planet, Lorien. But until then, they remain in hiding while they develop their Legacies and find each other.
