1. In the book The Fifth Wave by Rick Yancy, is told in four points of view Cassie, Evan Walker, Sam, And Ben Parish. This story is set in America after Aliens come to earth and set off stages of extermination, the first one was shutting off the power. The second was a tsunami that covered forty miles inland, and the third wave is disease which probably wiped out 97% of the remaining population. The fourth wave was the silencers, Aliens inhabiting the minds off humans and killing off the rest of the human population. And the fifth wave is where the aliens use the military to train the remaining children as soldiers and use them to kill off the remaining humans. Cassie is looking for her brother Sam, who is taken by the military, and is dodging the Others. Sam is waiting for Cassie, his sister to come meet him at the base so they can be together again. Evan Walker who is a silencer, who is stalking Cassie through the woods, after he shots her in the leg he decideds he cant kill her so he brings her back to his house. As he helps her get better he realizes that he's falling in love with her and decides to help her get her brother back . Ben Parish, nicknamed zombie and also Cassie's old crush from high school, was sick with the plague when the Others found him and took him back to the base where he was trained with Sam.
2. The theme of the book is bravery for when Cassie goes to find her brother, love for when an alien falls in love with a human, and sacrifice.
3. Based on the authors tone I think that hes the type of person who wakes up late and watches movies like Independence Day, Cowboys and Aliens, and things like that. He uses these movies as inspiration. He also is somewhat against clichés meaning he knows there cant always be a happy ending. So I think in the next book one of the main characters may die.
4.Antagonists: The antagonists of the story are the Others
Cliché: A Character falls in love with in love and is willing to die for them
Comedy: Ben uses humor to break up the amount of tension
Flat Characters: Teacup,a kind of psychotic ten year old, Dumbo a medical officer, and Flintstone a major a-hole.
