The Infinite Sea

Rick Yancey

Book 2 of The 5th Wave

In this continuation of a post-apocalyptic alien-invasion saga, a small band of young survivors—led by Cassie, Ben, and the sharp-shooting Ringer—try to stay alive and trust one another after the devastating fifth wave of attacks. Holed up in an abandoned hotel, the group is forced to split up and confront new horrors as the shadowy 'Others' tighten their grip on what remains of humanity. The novel widens the story's perspective, giving deeper insight into characters only glimpsed before, while pushing the fragile hope of reunion and resistance to its breaking point.
