The Invaders Plan

So there were many parts of this book that were a HOOT! The names had me laughing throghout the entire book. It was funny, witty, and the story was interesting. I am glad after it sat on my bookshelf for the last 4 years that I finally took the time to read it.

Having to state at the beginning of a book that it is a satire is the same as someone telling you they're a celebrity: if they have to tell you, they really are not. This book is more of a disappointment due to the expectation set by "Battlefield Earth." I am extremely thankful that I did not invest in the other nine volumes of this ponderous "saga".

This time around, I couldn't take the utter incompetence of the main character, who is a lackey for the villains. Written that way on purpose, but it was just embarrassing and I was very uncomfortable. Did not finish and will stick to Battlefield Earth & Final Blackout if I feel the need for some Hubbard. "

I really enjoyed this series. It was very creative with a good hero, Jettero Heller and I liked the technology of the space ship Tug One.

I read all ten books in the series skipping Volume 1 the first time through because I wanted to read about what happened on Earth, then went back and read volume 1 after I satisfied that need.

This series is a Sci Fi satire, full of comical escapades of lesser characters around a rather more composed Jettero Heller who is trying to succeed in his Mission to save Earth which is referred to by Volartians as Blito P3.

I don't understand why this book is so overrated.
It was boring, the plot is bad (can I say stupid?) and you can feel the Scientology principles everywhere; shaping the character's motivations.
There are so much better scifi books to read, don't lose your time.

Ok this was a series that I was really really excited about reading at 1st; great action; wonderful characters; cool plot twists; lots and lots of good stuff; then about half way thru book 3 really started feeling like a soap opera with too much sex for no stupid reason other than to show that the writer is a pervert then continued in books 4 and 5 and I had my heart on reading all 10 but after just a chapter or so of book six I JUST COULDN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE SO OVERALL VERY VERY DISAPPOINTED; leaving the rating as 4 stars though due to the enjoyment I received at 1st

This series is really PULP sci-fi. Well yes, as a teenie I was reading anything.
