This story is told in alternating points of view, but for most of the saga the narration is by Cassie Sullivan, age sixteen when “the Others” come to Earth. I hope that you, Reader, aren’t someone who thinks that a young adult trilogy about an invasion from outer space can’t possibly be a sublime, sweeping meditation on the meaning of life.

The book isn’t written like a traditional story, it’s written out like an interview. So I should explain what I mean by “different”.
