I think this is a very good book because of all the adventure that is in it. The whole plot is genius, the fight for power- people or aliens. There are a lot of problems placed on Tyler (take care of the two 6 year olds, leading the group, and of course the decision to rebel or not) and these shows how much he can take and adds emotion through the journey. Overall, this is a great book and I would recommend this book to almost anyone.
