reviewed on + 170 more book reviews


A man wakes up one morning to find a work crew getting ready to destroy his house and aliens getting ready to destroy the Earth. He is rescued by a friend who just happens to be an alien and starts a quest that will lead him to the ends of the universe. This is not a bad book...certainly better than the ones that follow. Just a little on the chaotic side. Characters are introduced that never go anywhere...or are just there to move the plot along. But, if you're a fan of this series, this is where it began.
