Cassie Sullivan is a 16-year-old girl fighting for survival. After the Others arrive, 4 waves of deadly attacks wipe out 7 billion of the worlds population, the only person worth fighting for is her brother, 5-year-old Sammy. After he is taken by U.S military and trained for combat, Cassie has to travel a long distance to find her brother once again. I loved this book because it was action-packed, and just when things start to slow down, another unexpected thing happens. I would put the age range as 13+.
