The Outsider
The following report compares books using the SERCount Rating (base on the result count from the search engine).
Rating: 4.82/5 from 76 reviews an amazing start to ROSWELLAnd so Roswell is born..I'm a die-hard Roswell fan so it's hard for me not to like this book, but people who do not watch the series will like it too. The book is aimed at a young teen audience and because of that, the writing can be very simplistic. I still enjoyed it. I didn't need an elaborate writing style to evoke the world of Roswell for me. Metz has wit and writes her characters very well. One of the wonderful things about the Roswell High books is the humor. You will never run out of one-liners! The romance and sci-fi and action elements are balance perfectly - by the end you will have no choice but to buy the 2nd one. Trust me...I tried to resist, but ended up getting all ten. (I suggest buying 2 or 3 books at a time...you'll get through them pretty fast.) If you love the TV show you will love this book. There are a few differences such as name changes or the Pod-squad's mythology. The only thing that I didn't like was the fact that Max Evans had blonde hair! (I read it and change it to brown in my mind - I know...what can I say? I'm a fan.) All in all it's a great read - A lot of fun. Over and Over"The Outsider" was an awsome I could not put it down. It is really interesting how they mix alien life and human life together. And it is very action filled. I would read it a second time just to get the juice going. And the characters are very intersesting and the author Melinda Metz is a very good writer. I would say that readers anywhere from 12-25 could read this cause it is interesting. | ||||||||||||||||||||
The TV series were great of course,but the books are far more better,it's marvellous and irresisitible!once i started to read,i couldn't stop!You¡¦ll have a better understanding of the story rather than watching TV.Reading the book,you would find more interesting than watching the TV,as Melinda Metz(the writer)can use the exactly right words in creating a scene that helps readers feel like they were just right there too!and the characters are all very impressive to me, this is not only science fiction book but a mix of romance,action and drama.I highly recommend this book to all the readers who are first looking for a sci-fic book to read,as this is not a normal one,it won¡¦t make you bored but make you addicted to it!!
