Sanderson said he was writing this book he was thinking of
the trope of a boy and his dragon but changed it to a girl and her spaceship…Spensa
is on a planet that is constantly attacked by alien starfighters. While
exploring the caverns of her home, Spensa discovers an ancient, sentient ship.
With the help of the ship she can realize her dream of being a pilot and
defending her people from the aliens.
One of my favorite science fiction movies of all time and one I watch nearly every day on July 4.
When aliens invade the world in July it is up to a group of survivors to defend
our planet. It has World of the War vibes, but these aliens came a lot further
away than Mars. Enjoy it this Fourth! There is sequel. It’s not really worth
your time.
Taking place during and after the 1996 movie Independence
Day this is the story of what was happening in the Middle East. United in
common interests, the British, Muslims, and Jews must work together to defeat
the aliens especially when they learn that the aliens are planning a ground
invasion. It was a fun addition to the franchise.
In 1978, David Freeman is abducted by a sentient ship named
“Max.” He unknowingly travels to a distant galaxy and although he doesn’t age a
day, eight years have passed since he was abducted. David is brought to a
government facility where they want to conduct experiments on him. Max in turn
has managed to crash and erase his own memories on how to get home. Max lures
David back because he implanted the coordinates to his own planet in David’s
brain. Max and David both need to figure out how to get home. It’s a great
movie.
