Publisher's summary

This program also contains seven bonus radio transmissions from Pittacus Lore!

Until the day I met John Smith, Number Four, I'd been on the run alone, hiding and fighting to stay alive.

Together, we are much more powerful. But it could only last so long before we had to separate to find the others....

I went to Spain to find Seven, and I found even more, including a tenth member of the Garde who escaped from Lorien alive. Ella is younger than the rest of us, but just as brave. Now we're looking for the others - including John.

But so are they.

They caught Number One in Malaysia.

Number Two in England.

And Number Three in Kenya.

They caught me in New York - but I escaped.

I am Number Six.

They want to finish what they started.

But they'll have to fight us first.

story was as good as ever accept for the last chapter where they come up with the garbled radio recordings and you really can't understand anything that's said

Fun read.

The story is a little spread out, but it's a fun mindless story with a good audible performance.

Why did they ruin this book??

This is not a bad story! I enjoy this book and the tale. BUT. The 3rd rate actors that read this book are TERRIBLE! Just read the book!!! You can’t even enjoy the writing. If’s character‘screams something... so does the reader. It’s terrible!!! Just read the book!!! Stop this terrible narrative! The last few chapters are inaudible because they are trying to sound like a recording. I can’t even follow the plot! Great book. Terrible narration. It’s disgusting honestly...I JUST WANT TO HEAR THE BOOK READ. ty for ruining it

If you like the pulp fiction of the forties

This reminds me of the stories from the pulp SF magazines of the forties and fifties. Definitely a teen level tale. If I can find a good deal on the rest of the series I'll probly listen to it, otherwise I think this may be my last story of the series.

This Series Is Amazing

I am going through the entire series now and everything about it is incredible. I love the voice acting, the story, the structure, where each book starts and stops. Very well made.
