Too long, too many rehashed plot devices, and too much banal science fiction.

Kinda surprise ending.

I loved this book, in fact, I skipped sleep and went straight to work, came home and finisthed the book past midnight. Finished the book in one day....:)

Warning! Hang in there for the first few chapters since they are very slow to get into it but once you get going...there is not stopping.

PS. I love Ian O'Shea.

I gave my copy away. Just pre-ordered the paperback version due in April.

Don't knock it until you've tried it. Stephenie Meyer's Twilight Series is completely different. The Host is a fantastic book that I think really stands out from the Twilight series and from other books.
The beginning is hard to get through for some people. It was for me the first time I read it. No I enjoy reading the beginning though, so just stick with it and it will all be good.

Stephenie Meyer captures the struggle between two different species' fight for survival in an intriguing manner. This book has a little of everything: action, suspense, romance, drama. I couldn't put this book down. ...more
