Product Description

She¹s done it again! K.A. Applegate, best-selling author of author of the ANIMORPHS and EVERWORLD series, presents a fresh, exciting, and gritty new science-fiction series that combines a little 2001, a little Survivor and Armageddon, for a whole lot of action! Where would the Rock hit? Would it hit far out in the ocean and send a wave to wash this idyllic place into the sea like a sandcastle with the tide coming in? Would the Rock hit far across the planet and break the world apart? There¹ll be so much left to do. So much to say. But what do you say at the end of the world?

More! I must have more!5
Just like the first Remnants book, this one is expertly written. I wished it was longer, though. When I finished, I was resenting the fact that "Them" doesn't come out until October. One thing's for sure: this book series can only get more interesting.

The plot: five hundred years have passed since Earth was destroyed. Jobs, 2Face, Mo'Steel and the others wake up to discover that the Mayflower has landed on a surreal world that, creepily enough, seems to have been inspired by human artwork. Between twenty and thirty of the Eighty survived the trip. Some have changed, some haven't; Yago is still power-hungry, Billy Weird seems to be in an empathic coma, and something really bizarre has happened to Tamara Hoyle and her baby. There are many new characters introduced, so many that we wonder if K.A. can handle them all. And yes, in typical K.A. fashion, there are aliens. Lots of aliens.

Animorphs and Everworld were great series, but Remnants is better in many ways. I can't wait for book 3....and book 4...and books 5 and 6 and 7 and...

Brilliant!5
This book is just as suspenseful and mysteryous as its prequel, "The Mayflower Project," where we first met the eighty people chosen to live after earth was destroyed. Now, in this new installment, they awaken 500 years and 12 days larter in a land where "normal" doesn't exsist. We've got a strange, artwork-like plannet; a baby who looks at you with empty eye sockets; decomposed adults; killer aliens; Billy Wier, who seems to be alive but paralyzed; and more. It has been said that Remnants is a series that will thrive on suprises, and there's a new suprise around every turn of a page in this book. All in all, it's a thriler, and it leaves you hanging, waiting, longing, for Book #3: THEM.

The thrilling second book in the Remnants series.5
Just before the world was destroyed by an asteroid in 2011, eighty people were put into hibernation on a shuttle, called the Mayflower, and shot blindly into space. Now, five hundred years later, the Mayflower has landed. But less than half of the eighty survived the trip, and those that did find themselves on a strange, unnatural world. The survivors, who call themselves the Wakers, need to work together, but fear and hostility divides them. This world is inhabited by one or more alien species that may have been responsible for its creations. The Wakers may have survived the end of the world and a five hundred year journey through space, but will they be able to survive on this strange new world? The exciting new Remnants series continues with the thrilling second book, which, like the first book, ends with a cliffhanger. I can't wait to read book three.
