lorien legacies - i am number four by pittacus lore (2010)

lately i read a lot of ya sci-fi, and here yet another one: i am number four, written by the alien author pittacus lore (james frey).

john smith, alias four, is from the planet lorien. in the beginning there were nine of them, but now three are dead, and as he is number four, he will be next... with his guardian he moves to ohio, to escape his deadly enemies.

a cool action-book, though it reminds me somewhat of a comic (distroyed planet, hiding on erth, superpowers...) i really liked the book and i'm very excited to watch the movie... 

the 2nd book of the lorien legacies, the power of six will be released in august 2011.
