Kyle’s kids are killed by an unknown UFO when they are summarily nabbed by, then ejected from the UFO. This aspect was neither confirmed nor denied by the author. In fact, the book series is almost written as a fictional memoir… as if Kyle is recounting these stories from some distant future rather than being told to us “in the now”.

Instead, the author chose to focus entirely on Kyle Riggs, our protagonist of this series, and his specific circumstances, always from Kyle’s point of view. Seeing these events unfold separately from the main character’s story would have given us deeper depth into this universe and its series of unfolding events. Unfortunately, this linear unfolding is a bit detrimental to this series of books because there are a number of characters who could have benefited from having their own separate story arc. Unlike many books which might jump back and forth between several unfolding story arcs between different characters, this book series is written entirely linear with a single story thread told to us in first person by the protagonist. Let’s start by how these books are written. SPOILER ALERT: If you wish to read this book series, this review may contain spoilers. While Audible and Amazon both allow you to review individual books separately, they don’t really offer a way to review a book series as a whole.
