Free (nook/Kindle/Kobo/iTunes UK) I Am Number Four [YA Sci-Fi Conspiracy Adventure]

[ATDrake]

I Am Number Four by the pseudonymous "Pittacus Lore" is the 1st in the Lorien Legacies series (Wikipedia) of YA science fiction action/adventure thrillers involving teens with special backgrounds and a mysterious conspiracy and nefarious secret plans, as these things often do, and is the basis of the eponymous film (IMDB, Wikipedia), free courtesy of publisher Penguin.

Currently free, probably until next Monday, since this is the iTunes UK store's featured Free eBook of the Week @ B&N UK, Amazon UK, iTunes UK & Kobo (most likely only available to the UK).

Unlikely to cross the pond, as HarperCollins owns the rights to this series in North America.

Description
They killed Number One in Malaysia.

Number Two in England.

And Number Three in Kenya.

John Smith is not your average teenager.

He regularly moves from small town to small town. He changes his name and identity. He does not put down roots. He cannot tell anyone who or what he really is. If he stops moving those who hunt him will find and kill him.

But you can't run forever.

So when he stops in Paradise, Ohio, John decides to try and settle down. To fit in. And for the first time he makes some real friends. People he cares about - and who care about him. Never in John's short life has there been space for friendship, or even love.

But it's just a matter of time before John's secret is revealed.

He was once one of nine. Three of them have been killed.

John is Number Four. He knows that he is next…
