Earths last line of defense against the coming alien invasion is 16-year-old surfer Colt McAlister.
But before he can save the world, he has to survive the day.
All Colt wants to do is return to his old life . . . where aliens dont exist . . . where mankind hasnt been targeted for destruction . . . and where his parents are still alive. Unfortunately life doesnt work that way.
The United States government believes Colt holds the key to our survival, so theyre sending him to the CHAOS Military Academy along with his best friends Oz and Danielle. There theyll be trained to defend Earth against a swarm of alien shape shifters known as the Thule. But someone is trying to eliminate Colt before he can lead that charge. Shocked to learn about key events in his past and unsure who he can trust, he is alienated and on the run.
In a world of high-tech gear, shape-shifting aliens, simulated reality, and hover boards, Colt must step into his true destiny before our world falls into chaos.
