So, this is the third book in the 5 book series and I have to say that I love that this is a running arc in this series. The Earthquake and the assignation attempt on the President of Mars, Justice. This installment is based on Welliver trip back to earth in order to see if they can find a place to settle and survive. Welliver is this genius young man whose father and sister are along for the ride to see if they can help save the people of Mars. Welliver comes crashing into this installment as the shuttle they are in is barreling to earth and it’s coming in hot and fast!! Welliver is this wonderfully fun and lightly snarky character that I really enjoyed reading. He’s smart and yet as this really smart guy (and he knows it!!) he’s not really that much of a social kind of guy. He’s slightly awkward and that just makes me like him all the more. Welliver and crew land on earth and they are trying to set up their base camp and keep safe from the horrible octopus creatures, when he’s saved my this man…who takes a real fancy to him. I like the way that Welliver handles his attraction to Beast and the way that he’s still focused on the issues at hand. Beast…now I really like him. He’s been on his own for 20 years without any human companionship and has managed to survive. I like that Beast claimed Welliver almost immediately and didn’t take any guff from anyone. Beast is dangerous because he had to be…to survive alone with those horrible octopus thingyies…I liked that he found a way to survive and even not remembering his name…he still retained his humanity. This was another wonderful installment in this series and I have to say that the only part that really kills me are that these stories are so darn short, but for being this short…they pack a hell of a punch!! Great installment and I’m looking forward to what happens next!!
