Tate and his father don’t exactly get along. As Tate sees it, his father has unreasonably high expectations for Tate to be the best—at everything. Tate finally learns what he’s being prepared for when he steals one of his dad’s odd tech inventions and mercenaries ambush the school, killing his father in the process and sending Tate on the run from aliens who look just like humans.
All Tate knows--like how to make weapons out of oranges and lighter fluid--may not be enough to save him as he’s plunged into a secret inter-species conflict that’s been going on for centuries. Aided only by his girlfriend and his estranged mother, with powerful enemies closing in on all sides, Tate races to puzzle out the secret behind his father’s invention and why so many are willing to kill for it. A riveting, fast-paced adventure, Scan is a clever alien thriller with muscle and heart.
Most of
the
time I
have a
hard
time
with sci-fi books.
Which
is silly
because
most
of them are super exciting
and
fast
paced.
I'm just not a big fan of the genre. I only
picked
this
one
up because
I adore
Sarah Fine! She
wrote
Guards of the
Shadowlands which by the
way
is one of my favorite
series ever.
So I had to give Scan a try. I was definitely not disappointed.
Right
from the get
go I
couldn't put this
book
down.
It was fast paced and action packed. The
first
few
pages
I was
a little
frustrated with Tate's dad.
He was strict about everything! It
made
me feel
bad
for
Tate but
in the
end
it
was
for
his own
good.
He's character development amazed me. This kid was so smart and brave. I don't
know
what
I would have
done
in his place,
really.
The
secondary
characters
were
interesting
and
amazing,
as well.
Scan was overall a win.
I recommend Scan
100% to all kinds of readers. Fine
and
Jury wrote
an amazing
book
and
I wouldn't want
you guys
to miss
out!
