Summary

Twenty-seven years is a long time unless you are trying to save the world.

Nick was enjoying a late fall day, happily skipping his English class, when he was interrupted by a little silver ball. A ball that not only spoke, but claimed to be an alien artificial intelligence sent to warn humanity that a xenophobic alien race was on its way to wipe out every man, woman, and child on the Earth. The catch: They would arrive in 27 years.

Can Nick prepare the world for an invasion that no one knows is coming? Can he gather the people together to do what he can't? Can he move the sciences forward a thousand years in just under 30? Most importantly, can he finish high school?

After all, when someone asks you to save the world, there is only one right answer: "Sure?"

Finished in day. Great story.

One of the few book series I could stop listening to. I finished it in a day. Great story progression, likable characters, and great narrator. I'm already on Book 2.

Just Great!

Must listen/ read, so well thought out. Author has done a great job, there are a few parts that show the author doesn't fully understand a concept or process such as military protocols. Hopefully this will be something that improves with experience. Can't wait to start the next book. The narration is also pretty good, not the best on here (RC Bray) but good.

Intro sounded lame... But the story was really well developed.

Held off getting this because the intro sounded so 'teen hero', but it was far from that.
A great change from the normal 'fight, struggle, get bigger ship' sci-fi. It introduces a well thought out storyline, and characters to invest emotion in.
Really enjoyed it.
