That's 35 stories based around this first book. There are 7 books in the original series, 3 books in the Legacies Reborn series, 18 novellas and backstories in the Lost Files series, 1 book in the Secret Histories, and 6 books in the Legacy Chronicles. The Lorien Legacies series, I am number 4 being the first of this 7 book series is amazing! This is a good series for kids and teens who like a long, entertaining series.
