"The Rise of Nice"

"The Rise of Nine" by Pittacus Lore (Which is actually an allies) is the 3rd book in the I Am Number
 Four series which will hopefully not be the last book in the series because it is a amazing series with a lot of loose ends at the end of this book that need to be tied up.In this series 10 aliens who were saved from their planet when it was destroyed by the Magadoriens and were given number and the first 3 were killed. Now they were trying to kill the Magadorien leader by using their legacies which are basically superpowers and gather together. In this it leads from the end of the last book ("The Power of Six") where number four and number 9 met up at the Magadorians secret layer in west virginia while trying to save number 4's chest and best fiend Sam. Then Number Six who met up with Number 10 and Number 7. After they all eventually meet up they find that the final base and get through into the base to try to find the Magadorien leader and Six and Sam and then in turn kill the Magadorien leader. 

In this book I think that it teaches us that the right teacher makes a difference. You can tell this from the what the different numbers were taught by their cèpean's or teacher of the children that are taught how to use their powers well. But if you have a bad cèpean and they don't teach you then you can't defend yourself. For example Number 7's cèpean did not teach her how to harness her legacies or any skills so she was not prepared for a fight. This is the perfect example of bad teaching and that left her defenseless and confused when her first fight came and that resultated in the death of her cèpean.
