Review

When Mark meets Kaylin at school she insists that her name is Kelly and
that they have never met before. Confused, Mark begins to doubt his
memory. He then remembers that Madra had told him, when he left their
planet Detsaw, that any of their people visiting Earth would act as if
they had never seen him before. Kelly introduces Mark to her Aunt
Maggie, who finally confesses that she is Madra. Their shuttle had to
make an emergency landing in the mountains, she explains, and she needed
Mark’s help to get food and supplies to the starving crew. The
transport ship is orbiting and awaiting the return of the shuttle.

The aliens from Detsaw have another serious problem. Their alien
enemies, the Sloofs, have tracked them to Earth and are bent on
destroying them before they can relocate.

Featuring cliffhangers and easy-to-read language, this is an ideal
sci-fi adventure to curl up with. Recommended.
