com After the 1st wave, only darkness remains.

After the 2nd, only the lucky escape.

And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive.

After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one.

Now, its the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them.

The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see.

Who have scattered Earths last survivors.

To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker.

Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassies only hope for rescuing her brother--or even saving herself.

But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death.

To give up or to get up.

Wildly entertaining .

I couldnt turn the pages fast enough.
