Ratings and reviews

In the Invasion Chronicles 3_ Ascent, the plight of Kevinand Chloe seem to roll along as though caught in a stream of confusion and unwanted adventure. They seem to roll through the never-ending turmoil of being lost and now they have been kidnapped from Sedona and drawn to the larger alien vessel to be exposed to things they can't even guess how they will affect them and their lives. It's different, but exciting, avenue for Morgan Rice to present yet another world of excitement and sudden endings which leave a person wishing for the next volume. She delights in the suddenness of her stories – no time to relax is allowed. Yet you, the reader, knows she has that final statement about how the story ends. This is a new story in the Invasion Chronicles – and follows headlong rush into the meandering captivity of the two protagonists. Follow them through this volume and know you can't expect a next scene to loosen your nerves until the ending. Morgan Rice does not, nor ever has, provided a moment to catch your breath ! She has written 10 Series (some promising new stories - even today) and working on 4 more series. And so far, there are no breaks for you folks, including myself, trying to keep up. And, if you really like what you read on your own, she gives the first book of each series to you for free.

Morgan does it again. Captivating. Varying plotlines from different perspectives that seem to be drawing to meet for a dramatic conclusion. I especially like the way she is ties the eventual fate of the universe into a story line based on 13 and 14 year olds who seem to find the necessary thoughts, conclusions needed to get all survivors, adult or youth behind them. It is amazing how she can tie in a sense of camaraderie in a short time. Can't wait to see Book 4 Return. I feel I will be re-reading this series for quite some time to come.

Let me first start with the fact that this is my first book in this series and maybe not the best way to start. Nevertheless,I was gripped by the start and decided to read on to find out what lay in store for the 2 groups battling it out against the same enemy. As an adult, it was sometimes hard to imagine that these are kids, and at other times this was quit obvious. I did find the changes between their behaviour on the alien ship a bit too black and white, there didn't seem to be much of a struggle, but maybe that is the writers intention. The book stopped very sudden, (I don't look at the progress while I'm reading) and leaves you guessing about what's next.
