The vast military complex run by General Vosch that’s going around “saving” kids and training them to kill aliens is actually doing the exact opposite: it’s using kids to wipe out the rest of humanity.
Instead, they took care of us with EMPs, kinetic bombs, and a plague-all without ever setting foot on the surface.īut then (here’s the big spoiler for the first book) we learn that there are aliens among us, sleeper agents who grew up as humans but were activated during the invasion. But they didn’t come with spaceships screaming through the sky, lasers blazing. If you haven’t already read The 5th Wave, then be warned that this review will contain spoilers for the first book, though I’ll try to avoid big spoilers for the new book.įirst, a quick recap of the first book: aliens invaded. This year, the tale continues (with some new surprises) in The Infinite Sea.
I mentioned it in a Stack Overflow column about alien books, and I found it notable because (although it’s targeted at young adults and includes the inevitable romance story) the alien invasion was different from most of the stories I’m used to. Last year, Rick Yancey introduced us to a different sort of alien invasion story with The 5th Wave.
