Comments
To Conquer The Throne is a complete waste
of time. I'm still skimming through it as opposed to deeply reading
it because it reads as LAME as the worst of the TV episodes. The
characters hop and change how they act with a flick of a page. They
are completely unbelievable. The situations are useless. Even
the Visitor commanders (Medea and Beverly) are an EXAGGERATED version of
Diana and Lydia. The writing is trite and the situations pathetically
useless. I can't believe I'm still wasting
time on it but I guess I'm a glutton for punishment.
Trash. That's the only way to sum it
up. Gabriela, who's engaged to marry a KEY person in the Resistance
(although SHE didn't know he was! duh!) goes from shy, scared, little
mouse to a John-Carter-I'm-Gonna-Kick-Butt
character. In about 2 pages. Yeah.
OK. It's a truly horrible read.
Memorable Moments
Apparently... none!
The Back of the Book
"The alien Visitors, under their sadistic
commander, Medea, plot to seize Great Britain as a launching pad for the
conquest of Earth. Parliament has been
infiltrated, and the most hallowed shrines of democracy are about to be
desecrated. Gabriela Nicks, an American living in England, forced
to join a Resistance that is fragmented
and possibly infiltrated by the enemy, races
to rally the fighters of Earth for one desperate strike that may save the
world, and all hope rides with a small force facing insurmountable odds
and sure defeat"
