imnobody's review against another edition
Something confuses me: I was reading the summary in this book, and it doesn't seem to fit. Here it is:
"As DAniel X continues to hunt for intergalactic aliens, he and his friends go to England searching for Beta, an outlaw who takes the form of fire and who killed Daniel's parents when he was two years old."
First off, the Prayer was killer of his parents, no? And second, he was three when his parents died. Am I missing something?
Of course, this will be the first time I've read this book. Let's see what happens.

"Daniel X's hunt to eliminate each and every intergalactic criminal on Earth is always relentless, but this time, it's getting personal. Number Three on the List of Alien Outlaws takes the form of raging, soul—possessing fire. And fire transports Daniel back to the most traumatic event of his life—the death of his parents."
LOVE IT!
LOVE IT!

More rubbish from the world of Patterson Inc - rubbish for young adults dressed up as fantasy. AN unconvincing plot, two dimensional characters, ridiculous twists and turns, and overall fairly dull. Lots of short chapters may make it easy to turn the pages, but does not necessarily make for a good book. This series is right down there with the other fantasy series for young adults Witch and Wizard - and may even be worse.

I didn't really follow this one much as it was a race against time for the end of the readathon! This book also took me 1.5hr, as did the prior one, and I was so pleased that the end of the readathon was productive.

- Loveable characters? Yes
- Diverse cast of characters? No

I stopped reading it. The characters were two-dimensional. The author was trying to hard to be a teenager. It wasn't good.

This was a fun and easy read, and I definitely want to read the next in the series after reading this one. I feel the ending was rushed, but tolerable. I'd day fans of the series will enjoy it.

If I was actually a young adult (like 11), I probably would have enjoyed this. I've read the first two books, so I had to read this, and I'll probably finish the series, but I don't know why I started it. Maybe because I love Patterson so much. Unfortunately, I love Patterson's adult novels, not his young adult ones.
