United as One (Lorien Legacies #7) by Pittacus Lore 4.5/5 stars

Hey, guys!  I finally finished the Lorien Legacies series.  I've been reading this for probably five years at this point and enjoyed its conclusion.

The Cover:
The Cover:
It fits with the rest of the series design wise.  It has the symbol for unity.  It's a fairly simple cover, nothing impressive.  A- cover

Official Description:
The Mogadorians have invaded Earth. Their warships loom over our most populated cities, and no country will risk taking them head on. The Garde are all that stand in the way, but they’ll need an army of their own to win this fight.
They’ve teamed up with the US military, but it might not be enough. The Garde need reinforcements, and they’ve found them in the most unexpected place. Teenagers from across the globe, like John Smith’s best friend, Sam, have developed abilities. So John and the others must get to them before the Mogs, because if they don’t their enemies will use these gifted teens for their own sinister plan.
But after all the Mogadorians have taken from John—his home, his family, his friends, and the person he loves most—he might not want to put any more lives in danger. He’s got nothing left to lose, and he’s just discovered he has been given an incredible new Legacy. Now he can turn himself into the ultimate weapon. So will he risk his life to save the world, or will he realize that power in numbers will save us all?


Review:
United As One was a great conclusion to the Lorien Legacies series.  It was mostly full of fight scenes with the occasional emotional scene between characters we've known for seven books, or even those we've only known from one.  

It starts directly after Fate of Ten.  If you are not familiar with the ending of the last book, I recommend rereading the last few pages before you start United As One.

This book kept me interested, had fun characters, but started getting a bit silly.  It required a bit more of a stretch of the imagination than the previous books required.

If you've read the previous books, I'd definitely recommend continuing and finishing the series.  I'd also recommend the entire series if you have not read it.
