The humor was exceptionally juvenile and the big-bad's evil plan is to impregnate the women of Earth with his offspring (which he succeeds at with a few hundred/thousand women) and to eat the liquified remains of murdered humans (also a partial success). It's sickening and extremely inappropriate for the intended demographic (there're few demographics forced impregnation is appropriate for). In the book Daniel X, by James Patterson, a boy named Daniel is the only hope for protecting earth from deadly aliens that invade areas and kill many people. His backup is a team of imagined heroes, appearing out of nowhere in Daniel’s mind. Together they fight the most evil aliens in the universe, number five and number twenty-one, along with all of their minions. Read all about his encounters and battles with these aliens. When this book was recommended to me by my teacher, the first thing that caught my eye was the author, James Patterson. I had heard plenty of great things about his writing and other series that he had published. Naturally,then, when I began reading this book, I had pretty high hopes. However, I was sorely mistaken. I could give the idea to any person on the street, and they could do a better job with developing the plot and making it interesting at the same time. They could also write longer chapters. The average length of one of the chapters in this book was about a half a page in a regular size font. In terms of reading level, I would recommend this book to someone in sixth grade. However, if someone was looking for a good book, I would not really recommend it- two stars out of five. Daniel is a boy from outer space. He lived on a planet much like Earth called alpar nok. He can reanimate his friends (though he doesn't know if they are dead). He is an alien hunter. He has a list that he "inherited" from his parents who were killed by the number one most wanted alien. The story begins with him knowing who he will target first and that man or rather alien is #5 on the list. #5 looks kind of like a fish. Daniel follow him to a bar where there are many vaporized people. Next #5 plants caviar or fish eggs inside of women making them pregnant with fish aliens. Now fast forward Daniels friends that die who he reanimates help him in his final battle and destroys all of the caviar and #5 died and everybody lived happily ever after. no reviews | add a review
