The Second Book of the 5th Wave

The Infinite Sea

How do you rid the earth of seven billion humans? Rid the humans of their humanity. Cassie Sullivan and her companions lived through the Others' four waves of destruction. Now, with the human race nearly exterminated and the 5th Wave rolling across the landscape, they face a choice: brace for winter and hope for Evan Walker's return, or set out in search of other survivors before the enemy closes in. Because the next attack is more than possible - it's inevitable. No one can anticipate the depths to which the Others will sink - nor the heights to which humanity will rise . . . 'Wildly entertaining . . . I couldn't turn the pages fast enough.' New York Times

"Remarkable, not-to-be-missed-under-any-circumstances."--Entertainment Weekly (Grade A) The Passage meets Ender's Game in an epic new series from award-winning author Rick Yancey. After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the 2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one. Now, it's the dawn of the 5th wave, and on a lonely stretch of highway, Cassie runs from Them. The beings who only look human, who roam the countryside killing anyone they see. Who have scattered Earth's last survivors. To stay alone is to stay alive, Cassie believes, until she meets Evan Walker. Beguiling and mysterious, Evan Walker may be Cassie's only hope for rescuing her brother--or even saving herself. But Cassie must choose: between trust and despair, between defiance and surrender, between life and death. To give up or to get up. "Wildly entertaining . . . I couldn't turn the pages fast enough."--Justin Cronin, The New York Times Book Review "A modern sci-fi masterpiece . . . should do for aliens what Twilight did for vampires."--USAToday.com

5th Year Anniversary

The 5th Wave

While attempting to disprove that Homo vampiris, the vampire, could exist, Dr. Warthrop is asked by his former fiancé to rescue her husband from the Wendigo, a creature that starves even as it gorges itself on human flesh, which has snatched him in the Canadian wilderness. Although Warthrop also considers the Wendigo to be fictitious, he relents and rescues her husband from death and starvation, and then sees the man transform into a Wendigo. Can the doctor and Will Henry hunt down the ultimate predator, who, like the legendary vampire, is neither living nor dead, whose hunger for human flesh is never satisfied? This second book in The Monstrumologist series explores the line between myth and reality, love and hate, genius and madness.

The Curse of the Wendigo

All three volumes in Yancey's award-winning, "New York Times"-bestselling series are collected in this box set: "The 5th Wave, The Infinite Sea, " and "The Last Star."

The 5th Wave Collection

The highly-anticipated finale to the New York Times bestselling 5th Wave series. 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. Betrayed first by the Others, and now by ourselves. In these last days, Earth's remaining survivors will need to decide what's more important: saving themselves . . . or saving what makes us human. Praise for The Last Star "Yancey's prose remains achingly precise, and this grows heavier, tighter, and more impossible to put down as the clock runs out...this blistering finale proves the truth of the first two volumes: it was never about the aliens."--Booklist, starred review "A haunting, unforgettable finale."--Kirkus Reviews "Yancey doesn't hit the breaks for one moment, and the action is intense, but the language always stays lyrical and lovely. It's a satisfying end to an impressive trilogy, true to the characters and the world Yancey created."--Entertainment Weekly "Yancey has capped off his riveting series with a perfect ending."--TeenReads.com " T]he ending provides both satisfaction and heartbreak."--Publishers Weekly "Yancey's writing is just as solid and descriptive as in the first two books....What Yancey does beautifully is reveal the human condition."--Examiner.com "Rick Yancey sticks the (alien) landing in the action-packed finale to his The 5th Wave invasion saga . . . . And the author gives us a major dose of girl power as well, pairing Cassie and Ringer for an uneasy alliance that provides the best moments in this fantastic series' thought-provoking and satisfying conclusion."--USA Today Praise for The 5th Wave Now a major motion picture starring Chlo Grace Moretz "Remarkable, not-to-be-missed-under-any-circumstances."--Entertainment Weekly "A modern sci-fi masterpiece . . ."--USAToday.com "Wildly entertaining . . .

The 5th Wave: The Infinite Sea

The 5th Wave - Gelombang 5

When Dr. Warthrop goes hunting for the "Holy Grail of Monstrumology" in 1888, twelve-year-old orphan Will Henry follows him to Socotra, plunging into depths of horror worse than anything he has experienced so far.

The Isle of Blood

In the sequel to The Fifth Wave, Cassie and her companions must decide to either wait for Evan Hunter or look for other survivors. They must make up their minds quickly because the enemy is hot on their trail. This war is not just between humans and the Others; it's also a battle between hope and despair, faith versus fear, and love versus hate.

El Mar Infinito

In the fourth and final horrific adventure in the award-winning Monstrumologist series, Will Henry encounters unprecedented terror, a terror that delves into the depths of the human soul. Will Henry has been through more than seems possible for a boy of fourteen. He’s been on the brink of death on more than one occasion, he has gazed into hell—and hell has stared back at him, and known his face. But through it all, Dr. Warthrop has been at his side. When Dr. Warthrop fears that Will’s loyalties may be shifting, he turns on Will with a fury, determined to reclaim his young apprentice’s devotion. And so Will must face one of the most horrific creatures of his monstrumology career—and he must face it alone. Over the course of one day, Will’s life—and Pellinor Warthrop’s destiny—will hang in the balance. In the terrifying depths of the Monstrumarium, they will face a monster more terrible than any they could have imagined—and their fates will be decided. “Beyond a simple finale, this is a brave statement about the duplexity of good and evil, and the deadly trap in which all of us are snared” (Booklist, starred review).

La última Estrella

Ils connaissent notre manière de penser. Ils savent comment nous exterminer. Ils nous ont enlevé toute raison de vivre. Ils viennent maintenant nous arracher ce pour quoi nous sommes prêts à mourir... A l'aube de la 5e Vague, sur une bretelle d'autoroute désertée, Cassie tente de Leuréchapper...Eux, ces êtres qui ressemblent trait pour trait aux humains et qui écument la campagne, exécutant quiconque a le malheur de croiser Leur chemin. Eux, qui ont balayé les dernières poches de résistance et dispersé les quelques rescapés... Pour Cassie, rester en vie signifie rester seule. Elle se raccroche à cette règle jusqu'à ce qu'elle rencontre Evan Walker. Mystérieux et envoûtant, ce garçon pourrait bien être son seul espoir de sauver son petit frère, voire elle-même. Du moins, si Evan est bien celui qu'il prétend... Mais la jeune fille doit d'abord faire des choix : entre confiance et paranoïa, entre courage et désespoir, entre la vie et la mort. Va-t-elle baisser les bras et accepter son triste sort, ou relever la tête et affronter son destin ? Car ce qui ne vous tue pas vous rend plus fort.

Comment débarrasser la Terre de ses sept milliards d’habitants ? Retirez aux hommes leur humanité... Sortir vivant des quatre premières vagues relevait déjà du miracle. Cassie Sullivan se retrouve maintenant dans un nouveau monde, un monde dans lequel la confiance fondamentale qui reliait les hommes a totalement disparu. Tandis que la 5e Vague engloutit progressivement le paysage, Cassie, Ben et Ringer doivent faire face à la visée ultime des Autres : l’extermination pure et simple de l’espèce humaine. Cassie et ses amis ne savent pas encore jusqu’où les Autres sont prêts à s’abaisser. Les Autres, eux, ne savent pas non plus jusqu’à quelle hauteur l’humanité peut se hisser à l’aube de la bataille finale entre vie et mort, espoir et désespoir, amour et haine.
