I love science-fiction. I really do. And this book did not disappoint me at all. The author did a magnificent job describing the characters that compose this page turner story. We can feel Tandy's pain for losing her father in a terrorist attack, we cheer for our trio of heroes, Zytor, Phelena (I love her) and Raygor, aliens from planet Hebutar, and we really enjoy when the dark forces are defeated.

The plot runs like that: Zytor is the son of the ruler of planet Hebutar. He loves traveling to Earth and he decided to be pro-active trying to stop a group of terrorists from causing a massive damage in the United States. Against his father's wishes, he travels to Earth and meets a girl named Tandy, who lost her father in a terrorist attack. Zytor's father send Phelena, Zytor's sister and Captain in the military of planet Hebutar and her fellow soldier Raygor, with the mission of bring Zytor back to Hebutar, before he gets involved into the affairs of Earth. But Zytor loses his blue medallion, a very powerful weapon and his sister and her companion decided to cooperate with Zytor's plan so they can try to retrieve the medallion and help Earth's authorities stop the terrorists. Overall this is a fascinating piece of work that should hold the attention of any teenager till the last page. I am not sure if I liked the book cover. I think the picture might be misleading... The end "scene" is fabulous. I would place it as one of the best ending sequences I've read this year.


The author also had a brilliant idea of supplying mathematical problems at middle school/high school level at the end of each chapter. If you are not into math, just skip that part and proceed with the reading. The solutions are presented after the Epilogue.

This book was written by Les Berman and it was self-published in 2007. Pump Up Your Book was kind enough to provide me a copy for reviewing through their Virtual Book Tour Program. The book was kindly sent directly to me by the author. Thanks, Mr. Les Berman! I am anxiously waiting for your next book!
