I have to admit I was a little confused in the beginning of Alienation. I did not read the first book in the series, Invasion, but Lewis did a good job of catching the reader up in the first few chapters. Colt and his best friends Danielle and Oz are working hard, waiting until they enter the C.H.A.O.S Academy - a military academy where they will be trained to defend Earth against alien shape shifters.

There's a deadly virus that has erupted, killing anyone in its path within 48 hours. A biological attack? Perhaps but they still haven't successfully created a cure. Oz's dad is the current director of C.H.A.O.S. but many feel that Colt, even though young, would be a much better fit. But not everyone agrees with that and Colt has several attempts on his life before he can make it to the Academy. Colt thinks he is just lucky, but others believe he has a gift. But when Colt takes a massive hit, he might not be so lucky after all.

Alienation is a fast-paced young adult read with high impact action and great characters. If you enjoy comics, strong and abundant details that come alive before your eyes and superior writing, pick up Alienation today!
