Then there is the battle for power between Yago and Wylson. All and all the Remnats will have to work together to their best of ability to defeat the environment not meant for them.

A Page-turner

In the beginning of the book they are still in two groups. Billy Weir is still in a coma. Then the world disappeared and they all fall into a swamp. Then they start to ride things that look like blimps. All the sudden there on the the U.S.S Constitution and they might not survive. Then all the sudden people are over board....... If you want to see what happens read Remnants: Nowhere Land. I liked this book because it is about a group of people trying to survive on an alien plant that they do not know anything about. My favorite character is Mo'Steel because he will always help the people in need.My favorite part in the book was when Mo'Steel and Jobs fight the Riders.

Good, not great.

This Remnants book is just like the others, only it has a different story. It starts out calmly, explaining what the hell happened in number 3, then it gets more and more tense as it goes along, until some people die, some are near death, and some, you don't know what has happened. Even though I liked it, I still couldn't help but feel like it's been done before in the others. Basically, a good book that's unoriginal in its plot points.

Hope may be the last key in uniting the Remnants...

The Remnants have faced horrifying encounters ever since they woke up from hibernation. They've been split up into teams before and needed each other, and they've also made personal agendas between themselves to help them stay alive. But when they discover that their surroundings aren't actually what they seemed, soon they begin to realize that their unity is a key to help them all. The land that they're on never really seemed normal, but some of its horrors have been revealed before. But Jobs, Mo'Steel, 2Face, Violet Blake, and the others know that a common enemy may at last bind the team together in the ultimate quest to survive. Little do they know the challenge that awaits them in the shadows. Remnants #4: Nowhere Land is K.A. Applegate's daring new addition to the Remnants series, and the suspense and mystery continue to grow.
