Publisher's Summary

Nine of us came here. We look like you. We talk like you. We live among you. But we are not you. We can do things you dream of doing. We have powers you dream of having. We are stronger and faster than anything you have ever seen. We are the superheroes you worship in movies and comic books but we are real.

Our plan was to grow, and train, and become strong, and become one, and fight them. But they found us and started hunting us first. Now all of us are running. Spending our lives in shadows, in places where no one would look, blending in. we have lived among you without you knowing.

But they know.

They caught Number One in Malaysia.
Number Two in England.
And Number Three in Kenya.
They killed them all.

I am Number Four.

I am next.

Also included is a sneak listen to the first chapter of the next book in the series. Enjoy!

Formulaic but entertaining

Lovely bit of sci-fi I listened to with my daughter. Compelling and keeps ones attention. A bit mature for tweens, as it’s graphically violent at times. Narration was very good over all.

Story lacks diversity in any way. Female characters are scant and barely more than props. Very much a white boy adventure story which has been done to death.

However, sequel looks promising.

Great story, but would benefit from more voices

The story is good, but it is a pity they do not invest in paying a full cast of voice actors, to make the story more appealing. It is odd to have the very same person do all the voices and characters. Some voices are caricatures to make them very different and recognizable. Neil Kaplan is great, but not for all the voices.

Great and exciting story!

My family and I listened to the first half of this recording on a 7 hour drive recently, and neither of my usually phone-obsessed daughter’s even touched their phones! My husband, myself, and my 13 and 11 year olds were all thoroughly entertained by the story. We occasionally laughed at some of the voices in the recording, but overall it was great!
