Synopsis

They came to our world a hundred years ago. Before we knew it they overran the world, destroyed our infrastructure and now we live in habitats. That's the best we can call our living accommodations. They terraformed the world…
What remains of humanity whispers about a plan to evacuate some of us. They claim that scientists hid away in a bunker somewhere where they retro-fitted one of their spaceships.
We don't know if it's true, but as we watch them lead away groups of humans from the nearest habitats, we decide to chance our escape.

I was pleasantly surprised at how good and compelling this book was. Without thinking, I grabbed it off the shelf on my way to the Doctor's office and got hooked almost immediately. The story describes a fictional Republican primary campaign set in 2008. Patterson must have had a crystal ball as he......more

Goodreads review by Mario on January 29, 2012

I really wanted to like this book, but, right from the beginning, I found three fatal flaws that I just couldn't move past. One, the main character, though described as a Republican, doesn't really fit within the party on any level. He acknowledges that he is a social liberal, which isn't really a p......more
