I Am Number Four
In the beginning they were a group of nine. Nine aliens who left their home planet of Lorien when it fell under attack by the evil Mogadorian. Nine aliens who scattered on Earth. Nine aliens who look like ordinary teenagers living ordinary lives, but who have extraordinary, paranormal skills. Nine aliens who might be sitting next to you now.
The Nine had to separate and go into hiding. The Mogadorian caught Number One in Malaysia, Number Two in England, and Number Three in Kenya. All of them were killed. John Smith, of Paradise, Ohio, is Number Four. He knows that he is next.

This series should be read in order.
Nine inter-galactic travellers came to Earth seeking refuge from a vicious war which destroyed their home-planet. They look like us. They talk like us. They live among us. But they are not us. They can do things we only dream of doing. They have powers we dream of having. They are stronger and faster than anything we have ever seen. They are the superheroes we worship in movies and comic books - but they are real.
Their plan was to grow, and train, and become strong, and become one, and fight their enemies, the Mogadorians. But the evil ones found them and began hunting them. Now the last remaining Lorien are on the run. They spend their lives in shadows, in places where no-one would look, blending in. They are living amongst us, preparing and biding their time. If they can defeat the Mogadorians, they are saved, and we will be saved as well. If they lose, all is lost...
