This is book 1 of the Shifter Evolution Series.
I received this book from LibraryThing free for an honest review.
When alien beings made of light photons come to earth, they are seen by many people in many countries. This book concentrates on the group that landed in Alaska.
All the "shifters want to do is live here in peace because their planet is no longer habitable. Of course that is impossible. The US military tries to hunt them, kill them and experiment on them. One man makes friends with a shifter, despite his anger and fear.
The story is good. Although there are times that are contradictory. When aliens arrive one makes a statement "Let's head to the forest on the other side of the lake." Later when speaking of the lake "What is this substance? We've never seen it's like before."
The alien names are not very imaginative: a purple strobe is "Purple Hue", a golden strobe is "Golden Beam", a silver strobe is "Silver Tip".
I did enjoy the book despite these issues. I will be reading the rest of the series. I believe there are 6 books.… (mehr)

I received this book through LibraryThing in return for an honest reveiw.
This is book 4 of the series.
In this one, we learn more about the relationship between Melissa Marn and Bruce Wilder. Two scientists working for the SCM. Melissa's connection and compassion for the shifter's and hybrids. Also we are reintroduced to the hybrids, and given more detail into their lives and personalities.
We see that Clay and Claire are the only two Alaskan shifters left, but there are many shifter/human hybrid children. The oldest are now 20 years old and ready to go on their own to start families. General Raul and Corporal Lane continue to manipulate and disgust everyone involved. Uri is back, he is a shifter sympathizer now. His reason isn't at all surprising.
I enjoyed this book. It flowed nicely with the last book. There was a good bit of action.
I would recommend the series to anyone who likes alien or military stories. Or enjoys a story which causes compassion in your own soul. You will find yourself rooting for the shifter family, and hating the military and General Raul.… (mehr)

Book 2 of the Shifter Evolutions Series helps us to know Captain Raul a bit more.
What he is like as a military captain/general and what he is like as a man? Can he love someone more than his career?
We are also introduced to the group of hybrids. They are not children of ages 9 or 10. Each has a personality and challenges of their own. They are in need of adventure.
I do like this series, even with the few flaws I find in the storyline. I wasn't as interesting as book 1.
And where is Uri Petrov (human) and Cloud Light/Kyle (shifter)? I thought their friendship would have a bigger part to play.… (mehr)

This is the story of April, told by April herself.
Shortly after April's 19th birthday, she started feeling different. She had bouts of illness and great pains in her whole body.

We are to find out a great secret about General Raul. Melissa, Bruce, and Colonel Marn meet April & Arquet. This is the conclusion of the Shifter Evolution Series.
I truly enjoyed this book. It flowed nicely. The story was addicting. I read it in one day. The hybrid characters were likable, and you felt for their plight.… (mehr)
