Yeah, well, MY grandpa was a super hero

I read Alienation without realizing it was the second in a series. The story, while not compelling to me, would definitely hold the interest of middle school-aged boys, whom I am hoping are the target audience. Alienation takes a nice angle on secret government agencies and extraterrestrial threats, but don't expect anything ground-breaking here (I mean, the kid is named Colt, c'mon). Just a solid punch-the-alien-in-the-face-and-call-it-a-day story, WITH JETPACKS! 3 out of 5 golden electrostatic repulsors to Mr. Jon Lewis. I may not read your other CHAOS stories, but this one was a fine way to pass the time.
