I had high hopes for this series, especially in the beginning of the story. I thought this would be worth reading, but alas, this is a serious waste of time. All the main characters are smart-asses who respect nothing and no one. The fact that David is a trucker is just pounded into your head, and that, plus his constant smart-alecky drivel annoyed me to the point that I set these books down many times. It seemed as if the author was a ten-year-old writing about his ten-year-old friends. David has a trucker ear (what in the world?), he smarts off to everyone, and his interactions with his sister and brother are absolutely ridiculous. The aliens conquer Earth, then are taken down by a truck driver who can drive anything? It just goes on and on and I found myself wondering why I was even reading this drivel. My opinion is this is a poorly written series in need of an editor and characters you can relate to, and I do not recommend this to anyone.
