Invasion
12 hrs. 2 min.
Everything has a price. To live decently later—you pay with sweat and blood. For strength and agility—you pay with pain in overworked muscles and with time. For power and fame, you often pay with your soul. What will humanity give for the chance to become something greater? Isn’t the price too high? Will the human race survive when it confronts a mind utterly different from its own?
The hero of this book didn’t want wealth, power, or strength. He simply lived the way ordinary people live. A chance encounter with hostile outsiders disrupted his usual existence, forcing him to make decisions that, yesterday, seemed far too difficult. Now, to his own surprise, he’s a warrior. But are the invaders truly hostile? And who is more dangerous—outsiders who kill people, or people who, by the will of fate, have gained part of the alien abilities?
