The amazing adventure of DANIEL X!

this book is about evil villian called number 5. one of the top ten baddies. #5 sent a can of fish eggs to everybody in the city, it contained an egg of #5's so when the women ate it they became pregnant with #5's babies.

Daniel is the coolest alien out there! Don't take my word for it...pick up DANIEL X: WATCH THE SKIES and find out for yourself. This is the second installment in James Patterson's science fiction series aimed at the younger reader. This time, Daniel is determined to take on number 5 on The List of Alien Outlaws on Terra Firma. Daniel's father was the keeper of the list, but was murdered when Daniel was very young. He's determined to carry on in his parents' footsteps and become the best Alien Hunter out there. Number 5 on the list is a horrible creature that has begun to brainwash humans into starring in his intergalactic TV show. After they serve their purpose, Number 5's henchbeasts liquefy the humans and eat them. (I know, lovely, right?) Number 5's actions are actually carried out by Number 21 on the list. So Daniel has his work cut out for him. Daniel has many amazing abilities; the coolest is being able to materialize friends and his dead family to assist him. It takes all their help and all his cunning to devise a way to beat both Number 21 and Number 5. DANIEL X: WATCH THE SKIES can be a bit gory at times in the descriptions used. But the story is definitely aimed at boys, and the guts and gore in the story will definitely appeal to the intended readers. With short, quick chapters (two or three pages are the norm), the book flies by with page-turning speed. The action is consistent and continually builds until the final battle Daniel faces with Number 5. DANIEL X: WATCH THE SKIES is actually a refreshing change from Mr. Patterson's usual murder mystery genre. He does a wonderful job handling science fiction and creating a likeable boy that all the humans on earth can cheer for. Reviewed by: Jaglvr

I was happy about getting the book as quickly as I did. And the book was of course brand new in excellent condition.

Just a Regular Teenage boy who Kicks some Alien Butt

This book rocks! Now, I know that I need to be a bit more eloquent and insightful but I am so excited about this book that I had to put it in real IE Mommy terms. This is the first book that I have read in the Daniel X series and I know, without a doubt, it will not be my last. Daniel X is a teenage Alien Hunter whose main goal is to eliminate "The List" of top Aliens on Terra Ferma (Earth). Daniel is dynamic, funny, quick witted and intelligent...plus he has an imagination to knock your socks off! While this book was created for young readers...I found myself cheering Daniel X on and anticipating the ending. The chapters are short, face paced and full of imagery. It is clear to see that this book was created wtih the young reader in mind. It doesn't go to too deep in details but allows the reader just enough information to "know" the characters and understand their goals and at times, dreams. Daniel X is like so many of the teenagers these days except he is an Alien Hunter. He enjoys dating, kissing, dreaming and driving. Just a typical boy that kicks some Alien butt on a daily basis. If you have a child that is not a reader...I suggest picking up a copy of Daniel X. You will not have to worry about foul language or graphic descriptions. With many references toiPods, American Idol, Green Day, Mac computers and High School Musical this is definitely a book your teen will enjoy. I have long been a fan of James Patterson and I am happy to see that he had carried on his love of writing and reading for the next generation. Daniel X: Watch the Skies
