The invasion was only the beginning . . .
After his parents were killed in a car accident, Colt McAllister was drawn into a world he thought only existed in comic books-one where mind control, jet packs, and flying motorcycles don't even scratch the surface.
Along with his best friends Oz and Danielle, Colt is now training at the secret Central Headquarters Against the Occult and Supernatural academy. But strange accidents seem to follow him. . . even with the security of the school grounds. What first seems random soon turns deadly. But who is targeting Colt?
As the alien invasions increase in frequency and force, C.H.A.O.S resources are taxed to the limit and they're forced to utilize the new recruits. In the midst of battle, Colt will discover some startling revelations . . . about himself, his friendship with Oz, and why he has been chosen to defeat this alien attack against earth.
Alienation is the second in the C.H.A.O.S. Series. I reviewed the first one, Invasion, last February. I have been looking forward to reading the second in the series all year. Alienation continues the adventures of Colt McAllister in the fight against the alien enemy that threatens our world. While waiting begin his studies at the academy, he finds out that someone is trying to kill him. You see, he is slated to be the next head of C.H.A.O.S. and lead the Earth to victory. There are also other secrets locked in his memories that he needs discover about himself. That is a lot of pressure on a 16 YO kid.
Alienation is filled with intrigue and action. It also features a lot of cool weapons and equipment that sound like they come straight out of a comic book. There is more of a peek into the relationship between Colt and his best friends, Danielle and Oz. We also meet some new characters and potential friends for the trio (both alien and human). The book ends in a little cliffhanger, so I look forward to the next installment. Any kid, middle grade and up, will love this series.
