Daniel not only has to deal with trying to defeat Number 5 and his helpers,but he also has to deal with romance.The first time Daniel and Judy Blue Eyes(not her real last name) meet, is when Number 5 and his helpers take advantage of her,controlling her every move.They hit it off.Their first date happened to start off nice then disastrous.Number 5 was their and almost caught them both.That's when Judy starts wanting to help,but gets captured awhile after.Will Daniel and his helpers save Judy and her family?? Will he finally get his revenge?
This book is Sci-Fi to me it has a lot of science fiction things.Like powers,alien guns,ALIENS most of all.It's a good book but that an AWESOME!! book.On a rate of 1-10 i would give it a 7.I liked it but it lacked something,something I can't quite put my finger on.
Iwould recommend this book to Science-Fiction lovers. :) Because this book has ALOT! of it.
