Invasion by Jon Lewis




The author does a fine job setting up a sci fi story line but then he drops the ball on character development and plot development. The story arc is flawed in several places BUT ive seen much worse go tothe top of the charts because kids like fast action and this book has that. It reads like a cross between the motion pictures WANTED and the BOURNE series. Lots of action, lots of futuristic technology, and a hint of RESIDENT EVIL like corporate power out of a company called Trident. If you have a teen who enjoys reading, this book is ok, but I think the writer might be a tad schizo, due to all the mind control hogwash. People prefer differnt story lines. Please understand that I am a die hard Star Trek, fan and everything else falls below par. On a good point, it is well edited and easy to read and fast paced. A teenager could call it pretty good use of time to spend a few hours curled up with this book.
