* TotallyRadical: Much like JamesPatterson’s other young adult series, ''MaximumRide''.
* TwentyMinutesIntoTheFuture
* WeCanRuleTogether: [[BigBad The One]] [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment Who Is The One]] offers this to the protagonists, even teaching them how to control their magic a small bit.
* WeaselMascot: There is indeed a weasel, but he’s really a human and the protagonists are kind of forced to take him with them.
* WitchHunt: What the New Order is doing to those who go against their ideals.
* YouCantFightFate: 6 prophecies have been made about the Allgood family, and so far it looks like they're all going to come true. [[spoiler:Even the one about Whit and Wisty dying.]]
