Daniel is the coolest alien out there! Don't take my word for it...pick up DANIEL X: WATCH THE SKIES and find out for yourself.
This is the second installment in James Patterson's science fiction series aimed at the younger reader.
This time, Daniel is determined to take on number 5 on The List of Alien Outlaws on Terra Firma. Daniel's father was the keeper of the list, but was murdered when Daniel was very young. He's determined to carry on in his parents' footsteps and become the best Alien Hunter out there.
Number 5 on the list is a horrible creature that has begun to brainwash humans into starring in his intergalactic TV show. After they serve their purpose, Number 5's henchbeasts liquefy the humans and eat them. (I know, lovely, right?) Number 5's actions are actually carried out by Number 21 on the list. So Daniel has his work cut out for him.
Daniel has many amazing abilities; the coolest is being able to materialize friends and his dead family to assist him. It takes all their help and all his cunning to devise a way to beat both Number 21 and Number 5.
DANIEL X: WATCH THE SKIES can be a bit gory at times in the descriptions used. But the story is definitely aimed at boys, and the guts and gore in the story will definitely appeal to the intended readers. With short, quick chapters (two or three pages are the norm), the book flies by with page-turning speed. The action is consistent and continually builds until the final battle Daniel faces with Number 5.
DANIEL X: WATCH THE SKIES is actually a refreshing change from Mr. Patterson's usual murder mystery genre. He does a wonderful job handling science fiction and creating a likeable boy that all the humans on earth can cheer for.
