Description
In this electrifying tenth and final installment of the award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling Michael Vey series, the Electroclan goes on a high-stakes rescue mission.
After saving Tara and Jack—and losing a few of their own—in a dramatic battle in the Peruvian jungle against the Elgen offshoot the Chasqui, the Electroclan has returned to the US to regroup. But their downtime is brief, as Abi—who was abducted from outside her college dorm—is still missing.
Piecing together what few clues they have from video footage of the abduction as well as some additional information from Grace, whose consciousness has broken free of her physical body and connected with worldwide intelligence, they determine that she is being held somewhere in Peru by the leader of a group of other electrics known as the Colony. And so—once again joining forced with Alpha Team for a dual-pronged attack—they return to South America for a rescue mission.
They’ve fought—and won—against incredible odds before. But they’ve never had to face off against others with powers similar to—and potentially stronger—than their own. Still, with the life of one of the Electroclan members at stake, failure is simply not an option as they take on their final mission.

Disappointing Series Ending
2By Chris ChrisCHRIS1I wanted to reserve judgement until the very end to see if the landing would stick, but now that it’s through I can say with confidence that this whole followup “trilogy” was really unnecessary. It had a few good moments, but the series could and really should have ended with the initial 7 books. The villains never felt as menacing or serious as Hatch; indeed, I never really felt like there was a “big bad” here on that level. I didn’t like Amash that much, but he still felt more threatening than the big bad from this book (I won’t spoil anything by getting specific). And even that was part of the problem; the big bad from THIS book. Hatch got a 7 book series of buildup, this guy just got this book. You feel no personal connection, you have no feelings towards him at all. The whole trilogy felt like three books of nothing much happening, and some plot points that felt like they were leading somewhere still haven’t been resolved. What about the Domgaurd? The Lung Li? They’re still out there. Kylee and Bryan showed up, and that felt like it was supposed to be a big thing, but they didn’t hardly do anything. All in all a disappointing end to a disappointing run in a series that I once loved.
