We meet Carrick, son of Fin and Glisten (from Book 1) when he is 19 and just graduating from the alien cadet corp.  Carrick is half Human/half Ngizori and has never set foot on planet Earth.  We are given a glimpse into the alien culture and lifestyle.We then head back to Earth where the Uglies have decided to invade.  Shane and Pol (from Book 1) along with their extended families meet up in Spain to send a request for help to their buddies in outer space after the Uglies have landed and started trying to take people prisoners.  I like that some people in parts of the world refuse to be cowed and rush the bad aliens and actually win.  It felt right and had me cheering.  Shane and Pol use a communication device left with them in Book 1 to contact Fin and friends.  They get in touch with Carrick who ends up talking to Rhian (an Earth girl) as the Ngizori bring their fleet towards Earth to save us from certain death or slavery.I absolutely LOVE the ingenious way for fighting the aliens that the author devised.  It is a very alien concept and really gives the reader the idea that the Ngizori are very peaceful yet not pushovers.The author needs to find a good editor though as many sentences were clumsy and he tends to repeat things over and over.  If you can live with that, I guarantee you the ideas the author came up with are well worth reading.  It's not every day you find someone with a totally new take on waging war.I do hope he goes into more of the culture of the Ngizori as it feels faintly like 2150 A.D. by Thea Alexander.
