Explorer X-Alpha [Synopsis]

In case you haven't heard of Explorer X yet, here's the synopsis to let you know what it's all about. Be sure to enter my contest for a copy of Explorer X.

FROM THE BACK COVER
"After receiving a camp immunization needed for travel to Mars, Aadi finds that the immunization is the catalyst of an insidious experiment. Lucky for him, he was engineered to survive, thrive, and dominate. Without realizing he is being trained to conquer worlds, and manipulated under the guise of a camp, he unfolds the plot too late for a change of fate.
Aadi's world is shaken upon the revelation that life before camp was not what it appeared. This solidifies his plan to save then all from the company that seeks to control him, only for his rescue to end abruptly due to a freak accident on a field trip to Mars.
The full experiment is set in motion when he and his co-pilot, Eirena, crash in a distant galaxy called Shrenas, where they change and realize the full extent of their power. Holding onto his humanity, in the midst of turning into a god is Aadi's biggest battle yet. This turn of events causes him to put his childish thoughts away, forcing him to accept his change, and to decide to save a world, to do what he was trained to do, dominate it. In the midst of his struggles with this changes, his power is coveted by the warring leaders of Shrenas, and he is forced to choose sides to save a life, or to save himself. A decision that proves just how much humanity he has left."

I have started reading Explorer X, Thanks to a copy from LM and her publisher, and so far, it's been pretty good. It's target audience is the preteen age group and sci-fi lovers. Explorer X is filled with future technology and such for those interested

Red Scarf Girl by Ji LI Jiang

This is a summary, kinda, not a review.


Red Scarf Girl by Ji Li Jiang

-A memoir of the Cultural Revolution-

"Ji-li's deeply moving story should be on teh shelf of ever person's library. Her courage in the face of adversity and her steadfast loyalty and love for her family are truly inspirational for young and old alike."

-Nien Cheng
Author of A aLife and Death in Shanghai.



Well the back of the book didn't give a summary, but it did give that quote. Amazon didn't have a summary up either, but it did have reviews is that helps. LINK
