Following the major motion picture release starring Chloë Grace Moretz, the heart-stopping finale to the bestselling 5th Wave series.


We're here, then we're gone, and that was true before they came. That's always been true. The Others didn't invent death; they just perfected it. Gave death a face to put back in our face, because they knew that was the only way to crush us. It won't end on any continent or ocean, no mountain or plain, jungle or desert. It will end where it began, where it had been from the beginning, on the battlefield of the last beating human heart.

Reviews

A fantastic read. The 5th Wave is an electrifying page-turner A modern sci-fi masterpiece... should do for aliens what Twilight did for vampires. Nothing short of amazing An epic sci-fi adventure about a terrifying alien invasion. You'll read it in one sitting Remarkable, not-to-be-missed-under-any-circumstances A gripping SF trilogy about an Earth decimated by an alien invasion... the question of what it means to be human is at the forefront This is DAMN and WOW territory. Quite simply, one of the best books I've read in years Wildly entertaining... I couldn't turn the pages fast enough This book is scary! Yancey's heartfelt, violent, paranoid epic, filled with big heroics and bigger surprises, is part War of the Worlds, part Starship Troopers, part Invasion of the Body Snatchers, and part The Stand . . . a sure thing for reviewers and readers alike. Breathtakingly fast-paced and original, The 5th Wave is a reading tsunami that grabs hold and won't let go. ...a twisty survival story that borrows elements from romance, horror and dystopian fiction Wildly entertaining... I couldn't turn the pages fast enough The pace is relentless Action-packed. A cut above anything else in the genre Borrow this one from your teen's nightstand while they're at school Expand reviews
