Earth Unaware (The First Formic War, #1)

Alright, to anyone who didn't rate this book "5 AMAZING STARS" you are crazy! To anyone who is looking to read this book my suggestion to you is, DROP YOUR FRIGGIN COMPUTER AND GET YOUR BEHIND TO THE STORE (AMAZON, BARNESANDNOBLE.COM, OR ANY OTHER WEB-STORE, OR JUST GO TO THE FRIGGIN STORE) JUST GET THIS BOOK AND READ!
I got into Card's writing in 10th grade, Ender's Game, like most of his fans. I love the stories he tells with such ease. No other author can capture my whole attention like Card. I am so envious of his children and grandchildren who get to hear stories from him all the time. I can only imagine bedtime in the Card house.
Now to the book. I love how this book introduces us to more than one main character. Card and Johnston are very good at getting you to fall in love with all 3 instantly. I look forward also to seeing if "Imala" gets her own storyline as well.
My favorite by far was "Captain Wit O'Toole" though I wish he had more chapters. I really wish that more of "Mazor Rackam" would have appeared in this book as well, but in no way does that detract from how amazing this book was.
