Gravity's Eye
On Mars, your best friend sometimes turns out to be your worst enemy.
Zeke Hailey is struggling with life at the Chasm, the 23rd century school for psychics. His extrasensory skills have dried up and there’s a prehistoric robot out to kill him. At least he has a new mate, in the shape of late comer Fitch Crawley.
Only there’s more to Fitch than Zeke realizes. The boy has a genius for hypnosis, making fools of the teachers. Fitch has an invisible pet too, a creature armed with deadly venom. Zeke and Fitch team up with an old foe, setting off on a Martian road trip. But this search for answers will bring them face to face with monsters and, most dangerous of all, a demon from beyond time. Zeke will have to do more than survive his mind-bending friend and the ancient killer robot.
As the universe starts to collapse, Zeke must choose between saving his friends or the human race. For nobody but Zeke can stop the apocalypse of Gravity’s Eye.

About the author
Ian C. Douglas
15 books27 followersThe best writers are part-librarian and part-swashbuckler. At least that’s the career path Ian C Douglas has always tried to follow.

This quest for adventure landed in him countless scrapes, before finding himself teaching English in East Asia.
After ten years of hard grammar, he returned to his native England, and graduated with a MA Distinction in Creative Writing. He's written for video games, apps and is author of the YA sci-fi thriller The Infinity Trap. His stories have won prizes and he was a finalist in the Independent on Sunday’s writing competition. Ian is also a children’s history author and visits schools with bloodcurdling tales of the past. His writing has appeared at the V&A’s Toy Museum.
Ian lives near Sherwood Forest with his wife and children. When he’s not daydreaming about Martian landscapes, he teaches creative writing and writes theatre reviews.

Another great chapter in the Zeke hailey story. Easy to read and hard to put down. Adding onto the great world building of the first book and developing the stories and characters even further I would recommend this series to anyone. The only reason I gave it a 4 star rather than a 5 is the fact that you really need to read book 1 first although that in itself is not a bad thing and I highly recommend that you do however details from the first book are accepted knowledge and if you haven't read the first (or at least in a while) some parts of the story may be lost on you.
