Generation One (Lorien Legacies Reborn) Hardcover – June 27, 2017

This book was amazing. Anyone who read the "I am Number Four" series will enjoy this spin-off. It answeres the question of what happens next that often haunt you after reading a good series. The character development was exquisite, making main characters out of some of the minor characters from "United as One". I am reinvested into a whole new story line in a world i previously fell in love with, thank you

Unlike the Lorien Legacies there isn’t any looming danger of a murderous hunt. Nor is there a threat of human destruction. Instead, there is an enemy with unknown intentions. Legacies are on both sides; good and evil.The Rambam writes that our imaginations can’t stretch beyond our experiences. Any new conception is just a combination of their varieties. Extra-ordinary prowess or super powers projected upon fictional characters are mere extreme examples of proclivities or facets of our strengths that we posses inside the recesses of our personalities. Any super-hero, legacies, or X-Men-esk story that doesn’t explore this theme can be very boring. Human nature is more interesting than any physical manifestation.This is what this book is about.The chapters focus on each individual’s experiences. But, unlike in the Lorien Legacies, they are recounted from the author’s perspective.Would’ve given it five stars. But, frankly, it took to long to get into it. It seemed that the development of characters was an aside from the actual story.

Pitticus, does it again... new characters, a new twist and even a brief glimpse of Number 4 seeing Taylor and flashing back to Sarah... I wanted to give a 5 star rating but, "I Am Number Four"... Bas Mallaichte,!!!They did make a movie from it.. although, the inaccuracies in the movie strayed too far from the book and killed the expansion... But, Generation One... is in 2 words.. A Victory!!!

If you liked the previous Lorien tales, you will definitely enjoy this novel. The characters are likable with interesting back stories. The plot is interesting and the exploration of the roles Governments and organization’s play, both good and evil reflects our current world order. Who needs alien villains when humanity has a history of men ready and willing to practice horrendous evil to benefit themselves. Thinking, caring young people in fiction and the real world are the heroes we need to save humanity from darkness and self destruction. This book resonates with that message.

This was another great and action packed read for fans of the Lorien Legacy books. This is really a continuation of the last Lorien Legacy book and even features cameo appearances from John and Nine. I'd imagine other Loric will turn up for a chapter in future books (after all, they are meant to lead the Earth Garde). This is definitely an x-men designed book where super-powered humans are now fighting each other, similar to the x-men and the Brotherhood of evil mutants. It will be interesting to see where this leads. My wish is that the novels were longer. I realize the author is setting up for future books to carry more character development, but there were definitely instances where I felt disconnected to the characters because there weren't enough pages dedicated to building up their stories. Overall, great and fun read.

To start, I’m a HUGE fan of The Lorien Legacies series. I’ve read all of the main books and all of the side books and loved all of them. So when I heard that the author was creating a sequel series (Legacies Reborn), I was apprehensive about my excitement. However, this book did not disappoint. This sequel series does a fantastic job of complimenting the first series. The new characters have a lot of diversity and depth to offer. The plot is a perfect continuation of the original, but with new twists and turns. If you enjoyed The Lorien Legacies, then you will definitely enjoy Legacies Reborn.

I found the I am Number 4 series too long to conclude. Continuing it in this way made it feel fresh. The new characters and the new legacies have my interest. I look forward to the next installment. I do hope it isn't drawn out as long. Great potential with the new story line!

I didnt think it was possible to follow up that last book and to launch into fairly new characters. I thought Pittacus had explored all the plot twists in the first segment of books. This one blew my expectations out of the water. So excited for the next one.

This was almost perfect, the only issue is that its focused on 3 brand new characters and 3 returning but virtually unknown characters (the 3 human garde) as well as a new villain which causes the first half of the book to feel rushed and a little disjointed, but the second half makes up for it

I have no idea about the story...I just know I had an 11 year old who could not wait to start reading this after he's read the others! Obviously caught his imagination! He'd say 5 stars!

I may be bias here but I loved the 'I am Number Four' series and I went into reading this with an open mind and I absolutely loved it. It's a great start to a potentially great series. Don't go in expecting and wishing it was 'I am Number Four' this is about a new beginning for Earth's Garde. Let them tell their story and we'll have even more characters to fall in love with.

Arrived quickly and in good order. Enjoyed this follow on from the original series. Trouble is the author keeps us waiting soooo long!

I have read the whole series over the years. The story line picks up from where the last series leaves off. If you liked the previous series you will like this book.

My 11yo was so excited to see these! He read it so quickly and cannot wait for the next one

Not a bad follow up

Excellent book and thoroughly recommended it looking forward to the next chapter! Are they going to win against the foundation!

As entertaining as the original series

Brilliant beginning to a new series. Looking forward to getting to know the new characters better.

So pleased to find out that The Lorien Legacies series continues. Reading this book was like putting on my favourite pair of slippers. It gave me a wonderful feeling of familiarity yet a new story. Keep writing these books Pittacus Lore. I love them.

Good rad

A great follow on from the I am series. It’s a relief to read what happens after they win against setrakus

Brilliant start to the spin off of the original series. Couldn’t put the book down, quickly moving on to the rest in the series.

The introduction of a few new character's was a good addition to this book and had a good story. It could have brought a few of the old characters back but a good read overall.
