    I am Currently reading the book "The Power Of Six". It is the second book following "I am Number Four" It is Written by Pittacus Lore. I am half way through the book. The story leads off with number 7, Her human name Marina. She along with the rest of the nine Lorien people are hiding. The Lorien people are mostly human except their genetics and powers. Three have died(#1,2,3) and Number Four, the main  character in I am Number Four, named John is the next person to be assassinated and hunted by the mogadorians. The book is good so far because I read the first one and it makes you want to keep on reading. Pittacus Lore adds suspense when the mogadorains and Loriens attack one another, but I think there could be more action like in the first book.  I think that she writes these types of stories is because she simply enjoys fiction of aliens and humans fighting one another. So far in The Power Of Six there isn't really a strongest character because they all posses special powers individually but the person that has matured and mastered his powers the best is John from The first book. The theme is very hard because the fact that the lorien are running from the mogadorians and have to travel through many different states and countries to stay hidden. To be honest I am not sure what exactly what the idea Pittacus Lore wanted her readers to think while reading this book. A cool quote is "Some of the mogadorians don't know the meaning of our spell that holds us together."
 Since there were nine lorien that survived from their planet and made it to earth, so far 3 have been killed by the mogadorians and the Lorien have to be killed in order , ( number 1, 2, 3,) in order for the next one to be killed. Since number 3 has died John (number 4) has to be killed next for number 5 to die, and so on. Why is some of the beginning of The Power Of Six confusing, as in where they were. It goes from Number 7's school and church to her having weird dreams and then her being captive and it is hard to tell if it is really happening or if she is dreaming.
