The 5th Wave: The Last Star (Book 3)

The enemy is Other. The enemy is us. They're down here, they're up there, they're nowhere. They want the Earth, they want us to have it. They came to wipe us out, they came to save us. But beneath these riddles lies one truth: Cassie has been betrayed. So has Ringer. Zombie. Nugget. And all 7.5 billion people who used to live on our planet.

Following the major motion picture release starring Chloe Grace Moretz, the heart-stopping finale to the bestselling 5th Wave series.

'The next HIT' Daily Mail

Following the major motion picture release starring Chloe Grace Moretz, the heart-stopping finale to the bestselling The 5th Wave series.

We're here, then we're gone, and that was true before they came. That's always been true. The Others didn't invent death; they just perfected it. Gave death a face to put back in our face, because they knew that was the only way to crush us.

It won't end on any continent or ocean, no mountain or plain, jungle or desert. It will end where it began, where it had been from the beginning, on the battlefield of the last beating human heart.
