Description of the Book from AmazonSixteen-year-old author Scott Beck never wanted to be an Immortal Writer--not after his father was killed on a mission attempting to dispatch his own villain. Scott blames Shakespeare and the Writers for his father's untimely demise, but no amount of hatred will prevent the oncoming alien attack, which has come over to reality straight from Scott's book. Scott is forced to collect his characters--an Air Force colonel, two of the best pilots on Earth, and an alien enthusiast from the year 2134--and defeat the alien king before Earth is obliterated by his ships. But an odd sickness Scott calls his Writing Fever might just kill him before the aliens have the chance. Will Scott be able to defeat the monsters he created, or will the world end in flames? My ReviewThe publisher was kind enough to provide me with a copy of this book to review. All opinions are my own and honest. I enjoyed the first book in this series but not so much this one. The first one was more fantasy based whereas this is more sci-fi. I do enjoy the occasional sci-fi book but I think that if writing a series it needs to be consistent. I understand that the author is showing different genres as part of the plot but it seemed to lose the feel that the first book had. It seemed to set up the book really well for the next one so I'm hoping that things will tie together well. The main characters in this book were also a disappointment to me. Many from the first made a repeat appearance but I honestly did not like the main character at all. The story wasn't as in depth, I wasn't dying to read the next chapter, I wasn't drawn in at all. I look forward to the next book to see where the author takes the series but this one definitely wasn't one of my favourites.
