— Laura, 2/19/2014" This book was.... Interesting. I think the execution of this book was not the best. There was just a little too much Sci-Fi that didn't quite match with the tone and the rest of the story. I will be interested to see what happens as the series progresses. "
— NancyJo, 2/12/2014" This book had potential at the beginning, and really kind of drew me in despite some of the weak writing. It didn't maintain the momentum, though. About the time I hit the halfway point, I was getting bored. It was pretty cliched and cheesy, and to a point that's inevitable in most fantasy, but a good fantasy novel puts a twist on things. This one didn't have a twist. It was just a compilation of everything you might expect. I also struggled with how unbelievable it was. I'm pretty good as suspension of disbelief, and I had no problem with six-legged aliens, but the characters' actions made no sense. There were several times where I was just totally stumped by their behavior. And the plot relied very heavily on things conveniently falling into place or deus ex machina eliminating anything inconvenient. Truthfully...this might be a good early draft of a book, but what it really needed were some good revisions (and something to make it a bit more unique). "
— Nicole, 1/22/2014" Good story for boys. Lots of technical stuff about motorcycles and tanks. Didn't finish and don't feel I'm missing out. "
— melody, 1/13/2014" good, light alien sci-fi. "
— Tim, 12/30/2013" Abandoned it. Maybe I'll try it again in a few years... "
— Kendra, 9/19/2013" I think my pre-teen boys will enjoy this book (and series). It kept me turning pages, but the writing wasn't impressive. "
— Harmony, 5/30/2013" Sort of like Fringe meets Men in Black... "
— Devon, 1/28/2013" While I think this story is great and the characters great, Loved Basil, the thing is sometimes I had to go back and re-read a few times to see where the characters were, maybe I'm forgetful or the strings that tie up one scene from the next are a bit loose "
— Meenu, 9/20/2012" [coming soon] "
— Brenten, 7/28/2012" kinda confusing but still good cant wait for the next book "
— Kati, 9/29/2011" What a fun ride! This book was a great adventure with a lot of action and a good story. I want some more! "
— Randee, 5/20/2011" Amazing book. Sy-fi at it's greatest! "
— Amy, 4/29/2011" It was an okay book. Not too much character development. Lots of action, but nothing sustained. "
— Peggy, 4/28/2011" Cool story. A cross between Men in Black and the Matrix. Can't wait for the next one to come out in January. "
— Chris, 3/28/2011" THIS WAS FREAKING AWESOME!!! Just read it! "
