In this stunning 144-page prequel novella to the New York Times bestselling I Am Number Four series, discover what really happened in the final days of the doomed planet from the eyes of Sandor—who would go on to become the reluctant Cêpan to Number Nine. Sandor was tired of being a teenager, tired of going to school and obeying his teachers and playing by his parents' rules. He enjoyed breaking the rules rather than following them. But when he makes one mistake too many, Sandor's life takes an unexpected turn, and he is forced join the Lorien Defense Academy. Sandor had never believed in the crazy idea that Lorien needed to defend itself—Lorien was a peaceful planet, with no apparent enemies. But when Mogadorians suddenly attack, Sandor learns how real that threat was. Now Sandor is one of only a handful of Loric left alive, and the fate of Lorien is in their hands.

Sadly, I had forgotten who Sandor was. I had to actually look back and read some of the reviews because I know that there is always a few that will give away spoilers and what not.
This is not a spoiler.
Through Sandor's eyes we also get to see a glimpse of what life on Lorien was like for a few days.
Sandor is Nine's Cepan and this is his story. I truly enjoyed it and after reading it I realized how meant to be Sandor and Nine truly were. Young Sandor was a bit reckless, wanted to break the rules all the time, was often bored and felt confined. These were all of the traits that Nine possesed.
The relationship between Gard and Cepan has been explained to us many times already but I have to say that I felt it more via Sandor and Nine than any other. Even though this story is more about the days leading up to the great attack and not so much about Sandor and Nine, I felt like mentioning this because the author finally got this particular feeling right in a few pages. Good job.
