A "fast-paced and engrossing" (Publishers Weekly) sci-fi novel that asks the question: What would you do to survive?When the black spheres filled the sky, anyone caught beneath them would vanish in a flash of blue-white light. Huddled indoors, the survivors were unaware if what was happening in their neighborhoods was happening worldwide.
Josh is trapped at home with his father, whose sanity is starting to erode from the endless confinement. Megs struggles to survive in a hotel parking garage where she sees human nature at its worst. For both of them, food, water, and time are running out.
And hovering patiently above them is an extraterrestrial enemy that has inexplicably declared war against humanity…
This book was so good! So I am sure you are wondering why it got suck a low star rating. Well that would be because nothing really happened in the book and it left so many unanswered questions that you think there is going to be a book two to explain everything. Well you will be sadly mistaken. This book is a stand alone mess! From not having any information on where the aliens come from or what they did! This 292 page book would have been an amazing opening to a series! Or I believe that the author could have made it longer and made this an out of this world stand alone. But as it sits it sits it was just really a waste of two hours! UPDATE: Well it seems that there is going to be a book two called Monolith! I just found a little note on the authors website. I really hope that it is better than this one and I hope that it makes up for leaving us all on the edge of a very large cliff!
