Enjoyable Comic Book Sci-Fi For Younger Teens....By Pacey1927I enjoyed this book. It read quickly and I enjoyed the comic book type drawings of the characters and creatures in the novel. The story was entertaining and relatively unique. The story is about a 16 year old named Colt whose parents pass away and he goes to live with his grandfather who happens to be an old war hero called the "Phantom Flyer". The Phantom Flyer was actually a comic book hero and his true existence was more of a myth. Colt's grandfather as the Phantom Flyer fought against the Nazis in World War II. In Colt's era there are mysterious happenings and rumors of paranormal happenings. Can Colt and his friends Oz and Danielle find out what really happened to his parents?.What I enjoyed? Besides the cool drawings, I liked the many unique creatures written into this book. I loved the beginning of the book where Colt goes to the mysterious military headquarters and is evaluated for duty with the C.H.A.O.S team. (Center Headquarters Against the Occult and Supernatural). I thought sidekick Oz was absolutely adorable and by his description I completely picture him as a Taylor Lautner lookalike. Danielle is has some Hermoine Granger in her. She is smart and sensible and kind of holds the trio together.What I didn't like as much? First of all I was disappointed because the enjoyable opening scenes in where Colt is introduced to a world of paranormal activity and his evaluation for duty ended up having nothing much to do with the remainder of the tale. In fact they erased his memory at the end of that experience. It was an annoying plot device. I also thought that the pieces of the plot could have been linked better. Sometimes the characters would realize something but the readers aren't cohesively let in on what they know. It was confusing sometimes.Still this was a pretty fun read. It is far from a favorite but I think 13 year old boys would probably love this book. I have the second book to read for review and that will determine whether I want to stick

  2. around for the final installment.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Okay but not greatBy AnnaBefore I got this book, I read the Kindle sample and really loved it. I was completely drawn in by the fast paced writing and just had to know what was going to happen next! So I got the rest of the book and was pretty interested in reading it. While it was good, it wasn't good the whole way through.I really enjoyed the first half. I loved getting to know Colt and watching him slowly learn things and figure out what was going on. The writing makes it very easy to read and it's quite exciting. It was fascinating getting all the information about the hidden world and I thought Colt was an incredibly strong character, especially considering everything he was going through personally! This book is full of brave and no-nonsense characters.It slowed down for me a bit though- ironically, it slowed for me as the action sped up! I'm just not into lots of action so that didn't manage to hold my attention very well. Not really a fault with the book- just a preference I have as a reader! So some people will definitely enjoy the action but it just wasn't for me. It picked up again as it was ending though and I very much enjoyed the last pages and they made be eager to pick up the next book.Overall, Invasion is an action packed, thrilling light read full of well developed characters and I will be reading the sequel as I definitely want to know what happens next.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Awesome Sci-Fi Series!By jwitt33This is the first book of a trilogy and I really enjoyed reading it! C.H.A.O.S. is a government agency that has been around since before WWI to deal with and stop the invasion of Earth by aliens. Colt McAlister is a typical California teen until his parents are killed in a car accident and he is sent to live with his grandfather in Arizona. It is there that he learns that the aliens and government agents from his favorite comic book, "The Phantom Flyer and the agents from CHAOS", really exist, and his family is smack dab in the middle of it. Colt, with the help of his friends Danielle and Oz, set out to find the person responsible for killing his parents, and possibly bring down Trident Industries in the process.There is so much action in this book that I read it in one day! The kids in the book are very likable and the book reads very quickly. I really liked this book and I'm looking forward to reading the second book in the series, Alienation :D Colt McAlister was having the summer of his life. He spent his days surfing and his nights playing guitar on the beach with friends. He even met a girl and got his first car. But everything changes when his parents are killed in a freak accident. Hes forced to leave his old life behind and move to Arizona with his grandfather. The only person he knows at the new high school is a childhood friend named Dani. And Oz, a guy hes sure hes never met but who is strangely familiar. But what if his parents death wasnt an accident? His mother, an investigative reporter, was going to expose a secret mind-control program run by one of the worlds largest companies. Before she could release the story, what if agents from Trident Biotech made sure she couldnt go public? Vowing to uncover the truth, Colt gets drawn into a secret world of aliens, shapeshifters, flying motorcycles, and invisible gateways. The invasion has begun.
