The Revenge of Seven is a young adult science fiction novel by Pittacus Lore and the fifth book in the Lorien Legacies series. The book was published by HarperCollins on August 26, 2014.
The Revenge of Seven picks up exactly where The Fall of Five left off. The book is narrated in first person, with Number Four (John), Number Six, and Ella as narrators.
Ella wakes up in a strange place, she sees Mogadorians and tries to escape using the Great Book as a weapon. She realizes that she is in a spaceship. Setrákus Ra claims to be her grandfather. He tries to force her to eat and tells her that he used to be an Elder and that he experimented with altering genetics. He also tells her about how Lorien was controlling everything, and he rivaled it. Then, he puts a binding charm over himself and Ella. The Mogadorians try to force Ella to read the Great Book by blasting an alarm at her whenever she doesn't. Ella rips the book apart. Setrákus Ra talks to her, mentioning her "betrothed". Eventually he arrives. Ella is disgusted to note that she is betrothed to the treacherous Number Five. She finds out that Five killed Eight, and is even more upset. Setrákus Ra trains Ella to use her Legacy Dreynen, using Five as the equivalent of a punching bag. She apologizes to him later telepathically. He responds that he deserved it and that they need to escape. Ella wakes up later to find Five talking about how Mogadorians were bad. She and Five decide to escape. She finds out that Five was not aware of their betrothal either. Setrákus Ra catches them. Five stabs Setrákus Ra and the blow injures Ella. She loses consciousness.
Number Four, Sam, Sarah, Malcolm, and Adam, as well as a bunch of Chimæra are staying in an abandoned textile factory. They figure out that the surviving Garde are in Florida, except for one of them, who's dot on the tablet is bouncing everywhere. But Adam suggests going to Ashwood Estates instead of predictably going to Florida. The others agree, Four with a bit of persuasion required. They find a website titled They Walk Among Us with information about the Mogadorians and Sarah goes to meet Mark James. Malcolm, Four, Sam, and most of the Chimæra go to Ashwood Estates. The Chimæra carry cameras. They survey Mogs carrying equipment, and kill them. Adam admits that the General residing at the Estates is his father. Four attacks him, and his shield bracelet is broken. The Chimæra also attack. The General grabs neck of Four and squeezes harder.Adam stabs his father through the back. They observe the decomposition of the General's augmented parts. Adam takes up his father's old sword. They stay at the Estates. Adam uses Mogadorian surveillance to see Seven(Marina), Six, and Nine break into the base. Adam hacks a ship and uses its guns to kill all of the Mogadorians.
