    <body><![CDATA[At first this book was kinda dull, kinda interesting for me. I have to admit that i started out with no expectations at all because my book buddy Maggie said that it was disappointing, and usually our book reviews are alike. :) <br/><br/>This book was a bit disappointing, but not completely. It was confusing at first, but slowly got clearer. I didn't like how it seemed so Men in Black... i mean seriously, it was almost copying it!!! But the part that made me really start liking it is when they went to Daniel's home planet. I thought that was awesome, and it reminded me a bit of Ender's Game because it was science fictiony. The aliens were gross, but i liked the book better and better towards the end. I was going to actually rate it a 5, but decided it wasn't that good and gave it a four.<br/><br/>One of the reasons i think that i gave it such a high rating is because when somebody starts outw ith no expectations, it can only go uphill from there. <br/><br/>When i read the small section at the end from the next book, IT SUCKED!!!! i can tell the next book is gonna be horrible, because all of the ideas were already used up in thr first book. <br/><br/>all in all, i liked this book. it was nothing compared to maximum ride, but it was a good effort. i think maybe it sucked a little because of the other author's writing, not james patterson's. <br/><br/>LONG LIFE ELEPHANTS!!!<br/><br/>or as i like to say,<br/><br/>efalants!!!!!! ;)]]></body>
