Review: Reads like a Transformers movie or Mass Effect

The idea is good, the action well written but the story tells without showing the plot. Disappointing as a re-write could reveal the plot in a more interesting way.The hero lost me when he woke up during appendectomy surgery, got off the table with his abdomen still open and began alien hunting with no bad effects, no sewing up of the wound etc.I found myself skipping whole chapters of alien shooting mayhem as it was boring - like watching someone else play Mass Effect.I'd like to see what John Wyndham could make of the story idea with real people experiencing the appendix issue.
