Title: Invasion
Author: Jon S. Lewis
Ratings: 4/5 Stars

Synopsis:

He didn't ask for the job, but now all that stands between us and chaos... is Colt

Colt McAlister was having the summer of his life. He spent his days surfing and his nights playing guitar on the beach with friends. He even met a girl and got his first car. But everything changes when his parents are killed in a freak accident.

He's forced to leave his old life behind and move to Arizona with his grandfather. The only person he knows at the new high school is a childhood friend named Dani. And Oz, a guy he's sure he's never met but who is strangely familiar.

But what if his parents' death wasn't an accident? His mother, an investigative reporter, was going to expose a secret mind-control program run by one of the world's largest companies. Before she could release the story, what if agents from Trident Biotech made sure she couldn't go public?

Vowing to uncover the truth, Colt gets drawn into a secret world of aliens, shapeshifters, flying motorcycles, and invisible gateways.

The Invasion has begun.

My Thoughts:
I got the chance to read this book, Invasion by Jon S. Lewis for free at BookSneeze.com. This book was about a boy named Colt who is set in an adventure with an Company named Trident industries, who has aliens as the board of directors which are trying to take over earth using bio chips that control the human mind. An organization known as Chaos is there to help and colt and his friends are trying to stop and alien invasion that are coming to destroy life on earth and make it there home planet.

This book was a very fun read, adventure after adventure. The characters were great. Each character had different elements that I liked. Colt was the who dealt with the loss of his parents and is trying to bring justice to the people who did it. Danielle is the smart friend, who was essential to figuring things out. Oz was the fun friend who's energetic with a sense of humor and sort of nerdy. I've never read about about aliens in this form. It was different and I liked that Lewis explained background and history of each alien or organization in a way to where people will understand what is going on in the story. The hints of romance between Colt and Lily and Oz and Danielle was nice and sweet. I wish there was more development in that area though.

But overall I thought the book was fun and I enjoyed it the story a lot.
