Title: Victories Greater Than Death
Author: Charlie Jane Anders
Pages: 288
Tina is an alien hidden on earth, entrusted with the very important interplanetary rescue beacon, which once it activates will take her on wild adventures.
Tina.... is a bit stupid... Or maybe this book was just out of my age range. Although very easy to read, it was riddled with over used Sci-Fi jargon and did not, in my opinion, present a new and interesting story to follow. Although the characters were nice enough they feel like they were based off templates I've seen in this genre before. I have to this is why I have, in large stayed away from Sci Fi stories, because After Star Wars, Dr Who, Star Track, Ender's Game and a few other classics, how much of the Sci Fi genre is left to tell.
BUT I have to say the plot was easy to follow and as fun as you can expect from a YA novel. I really enjoyed Tina's interactions with the side characters although it been done before. The writing was fun to read.
This might be the book to get your child into the Sci Fi genre. It is with that in mind that I would recommend. Not the most original, but definitely a fun read altogether.
