Homecoming

"Homecoming" is the second book in Kass Morgan's "The 100" series, a thrilling young adult science fiction novel for ages 12-18. It continues the story of the first human settlers, known as the Hundred, who were sent from a dying space Colony to re-colonize Earth. Just as they establish a precarious peace, more dropships arrive, bringing both hope and new dangers, including the Vice Chancellor and armed guards. The narrative follows multiple protagonists, including Clarke, who searches for her parents, Wells, who struggles with leadership, and Bellamy, who confronts his past. This book explores themes of survival, freedom, family bonds, and the challenges of building a new society amidst chaos and conflict. It's a fast-paced read that will appeal to teens who enjoy dystopian adventures and character-driven stories.

Weeks after landing on Earth, the Hundred have managed to create a sense of order amidst their wild, chaotic surroundings. But their delicate balance comes crashing down with the arrival of new dropships from space. These new arrivals are the lucky ones—back on the Colony, the oxygen is almost gone—but after making it safely to Earth, GLASS’s luck seems to be running out. CLARKE leads a rescue party to the crash site, ready to treat the wounded, but she can’t stop thinking about her parents, who may still be alive. Meanwhile, WELLS struggles to maintain his authority despite the presence of the Vice Chancellor and his armed guards, and BELLAMY must decide whether to face or flee the crimes he thought he’d left behind. It’s time for the Hundred to come together and fight for the freedom they’ve found on Earth, or risk losing everything—and everyone—they love.
