Book Description:

Crop circles magically appear in Farmer Johnson’s field. A mysterious light sweeps over the night sky and awakens Farmer Johnson and Gilbert, the boy next door.

Curious, Gilbert ventures out to discover the source of the light and stumbles into a beautiful Martian girl sitting in a crop circle. Farmer Johnson also investigates the strange light, and thinking that Gilbert and Aoléon are vandals, he chases them. But they sprint to Aoléon’s saucer and escape only to be pursued by the U.S. Air Force.

Gilbert has never been attacked by swarms of giant killer robots. Never met strange aliens from other worlds. Never skyboarded across a megalopolis hidden deep inside an extinct volcano. Never trekked across a vast Martian desert. And never been eaten alive by a gigantic slor (well, almost never, unless you count Billy the fat bully at school).

And luckily, he has never ever confronted an evil ruler of Mars bent on conquering the Earth to steal its cows.

Never...until now!

This may be the adventure Gilbert always wished for.

If only he can survive.

My Review:

To truly get this book you have to see the images. They are so imaginative that you can escape into them. There are planets and moons, cornfields and dogs etc. The illustrator is the author as well, and I think that is why he was able to put his words into his drawings so well. The gunshot even shows the different color variations like fire. My two favorite pictures are the view from the cockpit and the water and bridge scene. I could see the ripples in the water and the clouds looked fluffy,

The story was really nice too, and I liked that it is about a normal boy in his bed. His neighbors get crop circles and he travels with the aliens. This story was interesting for me, and I can only imagine how much someone younger would like it. This is only part one, and I can not wait to find out what happens. There is also a glossary at the end to help readers that are not used to the science fiction lingo. In between all this there are close quarter battles, military and so much more. I am giving this a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
