I received a review copy of this book from LibraryThing in exchange for an honest review.
I enjoyed this story and I really liked the plot twist. The characters, primary and secondary, quickly became real and what happened to them was important to me. I never saw the end coming and for that I am particularly grateful. This work could have quickly devolved into a typical I am Number Four and 5th Wave knockoff, but instead Pavlou has created something unique and interesting. I am eagerly awaiting the next installment in the Endohuman Trilogy.
The only major criticism I have of this work is that the author has the main characters speak way too much profanity. I understand that this is a teen driven story and the majority of the story takes place while the teens are under tremendous stress. However, and this is a large however, teens can (and do) communicate without using profanity and authors can advance the storyline without a smorgasbord of profane language. The occasional curse word would be much more effective than the reverse.
Final rating: three and half stars.
