“Know that it
won’t be long before this world will burn and so will everyone in it.”
“I won’t let it
happen.”
“Why? Because
you’re the Betrayer?” Koeing said, his voice penetrating Cole’s mind. “I can
sense the change inside of you. Soon your body will be covered in sales. You’ll
be a hideous monster like the rest of us, and when that happens, humanity will
turn on you. You’ll be an outcast. A villain.”
Genre: Science Fiction
Target Audience: Boys 13-20
Subjects: Aliens, Loss of parents,
friendship, dating relationships, courage
Summary: There is no longer any doubt
in anyone’s mind that the alien Thule are real enemies coming to destroy them
and take over their world. Except, not all Thule are enemies. Some are fighting
alongside the humans, wanting to stop Koeing and his followers from taking over
earth they way they did Gathmara. It’s up to the Betrayer, Cole, to stop them.
But finding the portal, finding Koeing and actually defeating him seem rather
impossible. And it’s harder and harder to figure out who is friend and who is
foe with an enemy that excels at shapeshifting.
Notes: This is the third and final
book in the C.H.A.O.S. novels, a series that explores the question of “What if
aliens were real and were determined to take over our world?”. In this book, the
secrets are out and Colt knows it’s up to him to save his world. As for
spiritual content there is a bit more than other books. Colt and Oz offer
forgiveness to one who has wronged them and Colt clings to a verse on a
medallion his grandfather gave him. There still is not an element of God being
the one to save them, the one to give them power and strength. That’s all up to
the humans to do on their own strength, or rather the strength of a Thule in
Colt’s case.
Spiritual Content Recommendation
Scale: 2/5
Reviewer: J:-)mi
1 Peter 2:11 –
Dear friends, I urge you, as aliens and strangers in the world, to abstain from
sinful desires, which war against your soul.
Thank you to
Thomas Nelson/Booksneeze for giving me a free review copy of this book in
exchange for my honest opinion.
