Clover Martinez has always been a survivor, which is the only reason she isn't among the dead when aliens invade and destroy Earth as she knows it. When she hears an inexplicable radio message, she's shocked to learn there are other survivors--and that they're all at the former Area 51. When she arrives, she's greeted by a band of misfits who call themselves The Last Teenagers on Earth. Only they aren't the ragtag group of heroes Clover was expecting. The group seems more interested in hiding than fighting back, and Clover starts to wonder if she was better off alone. But then she finds a hidden spaceship, and she doesn't know what to believe...or who to trust.
In the thrilling conclusion to the Last 8 duology, the Last Teenagers on Earth return home to find a colony of survivors who aren't who they seem...
Clover Martinez and the Last Teenagers on Earth are busy exploring the galaxy after leaving earth behind...even if they are homesick. So when their ship receives a distress signal from their former home, they hope against hope that it means that there are other survivors. But as soon as they arrive, they realize something's deeply wrong: strange crystal formations are taking over Earth's soil and threatening to destroy the planet.
Seeking the origin of the formations, the group discovers a colony of survivors hidden in the mountains. Relief gives way to panic as the teenagers realize these survivors aren't who they seem…and Clover and her friends might not be able to escape.
I really enjoyed reading these books! Clover is very realistic, and goes through some pretty hard things, and I really enjoyed her story, as the world ended when the aliens came, and her desire to fight back and get revenge! They were such great stories!
The beginning of The Last 8, yeah, it's pretty rough, humanity is pretty much wiped out, and she's left alone, potentially one of the last human beings left alive. So once she gets with the Last Teenagers on Earth, well, she just really wants to get revenge on those that basically wiped out humanity!
Throughout this duology, there were some pretty fantastic twists and reveals, about why these kids in particular survived, and then what was going on in that colony. It kept me reading, because I just wanted to know what was going to happen next!
I can understand while it was difficult, once they were back on earth, because they weren't the last bit of humanity left. But there are so many questions left to answer, what was going on with the distress beacon, and oh, I loved how the story turned out!
Loved reading these books, and I can't wait to read more by Laura Pohl!
