a well-written novel!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Halloween Invaders the Secret World of Alex Mack 20 (Alex Mack) (Paperback)
This is a great story filled with excitement and action. I especially admire the way the author makes Alex run into one problem after another. This book held my interest, and kept me wondering about the outcome.

This review is from: Halloween Invaders the Secret World of Alex Mack 20 (Alex Mack) (Paperback)
I love this one, especially when Alex is about to morph in Robyn's bathroom and she just stops! Now she looks like some silvery mass human on two feet! She has to get home to fix herself, but how is she gonna do that with half town on her trail? And you know what? There are some alien hunters out there seeking for an alien alive...or not.

The Suffering of Plausibility,
By A Customer
This review is from: Halloween Invaders the Secret World of Alex Mack 20 (Alex Mack) (Paperback)
This contrived story has some exciting moments and scary action for really young readers, but not much in the way of plot or originality. Like "Close Encounters", this book also deals with alien encounters, and equally as poorly. The storyline is more contrived than the previous alien tale, and far less plausible.
The idea that people in a modern town could be scared so easily by a radio prank (by an HS deejay, no less!) is very unlikely. The author seems to forget that society is far more media savvy and skeptical than in 1938, when Orsen Welles' "War of the Worlds" (which obviously inspired this sad tale) was first broadcast.
Look at any natural disaster or war, and you will find a great deal of "channel surfing" being done by people trying to find news of an event. That fact alone shows how implausible "Halloween Invaders" is.
Now the action sequences about Alex's entrapment by Vince Carter are well worth the $4.99 cover price. But these great scenes are in sad need of a story to put them in!
