Lorque Exposure
The first book of the TROL trilogy.
Jonas is lost, dazed and confused. His family are gone; his friends are gone. Everything he has ever known has changed; an army of invaders swarm across his planet - Hala. Creatures are falling from the sky, military battalions are breaking the cities, Jonas' home is being destroyed. His fight is dwindling fast. He's no good - he can't win...best to just be lying down; giving in...dying.
But hope appears! A fellow Halan evading the enemy; a wild man on the run. Someone he can trust? Someone who will protect him? Who knows...what choice does he have? The Wild Man has friends; promises him safety. They escape into the mountains, comrades in arms, overcoming their fears...living, running...surviving.
But the wild man knows things. Whispering dark secrets, tales of a clandestine alien race...a race orchestrating the invasion. What do they want? How does the wild man know so much? What does he want with Jonas? Why are they no longer running? Because now they're fighting, rebelling, turning against the invaders...attacking.
Jonas is frightened...he wants his family and home. They're moving...into the heart of the enemy. He's unsure; bewildered. He's told of an alien prophecy; it talks of a weapon that fills him with fear...
…not because it can stop the invasion...
…not because it can bring home his family...
…but because the weapon...
...is Jonas.

Excellent story, which I hope will be continued. So far I haven't seen a sequel... in fact looks like the author dropped off Amazon. I picked four stars because there were a lot of spelling/grammar errors. The book could've used another round of editing. Cheers!
