Zero Repeat Forever (The Nahx Invasions #1) by Gabrielle S. Prendergast, 496 p.
He has no voice, or
name, only a rank, Eighth. He doesn’t know the details of the mission,
only the directives that hum in his mind. Dart the humans. Leave them where they fall. His job is to protect his Offside. Let her do the shooting.
Until a human kills her…
Sixteen year-old Raven is at summer camp when the terrifying armored Nahx invade, annihilating entire cities, taking control of the Earth. Isolated in the wilderness, Raven and her friends have only a fragment of instruction from the human resistance.
Shelter in place.
Which
seems like good advice at first. Stay put. Await rescue. Raven doesn’t
like feeling helpless but what choice does she have? Then a Nahx kills her boyfriend. Thrown
together in a violent, unfamiliar world, Eighth and Raven should feel
only hate and fear. But when Raven is injured, and Eighth deserts his
unit, their survival depends on trusting each other… "Amazon blurb"
This was written very uniquely. Very easy to read story the moves quickly. Sometimes the characters are unlikeable and there definitely needs to be a suspension of reality when it comes to how easily these characters can communicate. Those things aside, I really liked this book and looks forward to the second.
