The Dangerous Days of Daniel X, by James Patterson & Michael Ledwidge

Alien hunter

The Dangerous Days of Daniel X, by James Patterson & Michael Ledwidge

Wow! This book is fast paced and so much fun to read it almost leaves you breathless. This is a really great, humorous, adventure/science fiction book for young adults. Daniel X is an orphan alien hunter trying to save our world one bad guy or alien at a time.

At fifteen years of age, Daniel is smart, fearless and has a sense of humor about himself and what he is doing He is a self sufficient young man just taking care of the business of finding evil aliens and doing away with them. Daniel is one of the good aliens on our planet. He’s also a lonely young man who creates four imaginary friends to play games with, talk to, and just generally hang out with him. You’ve probably figured out Daniel has special powers too, but they seem to make him more human than the other aliens. This time out Daniel is looking for Ergent Seth, #6, on The List of most heinous of aliens on earth. His crime is kidnapping children and using them as slave labor or selling them into slavery on other planets.

This book is all about good versus evil and seeing dire situations in an upbeat, funny way. The end of this book will not disappoint you. This is only the start of a series of books about Daniel, so I am eagerly looking forward to the next book in the series.
