A review by ajakubison
Conquest by John Connolly
5.0
I received this book through a Goodreads giveaway and I couldn't be happier about it, so thank you to Atria Books and the authors.
In this dystopian tale, an alien race known as the Illyri set their sights on conquering Earth. Naturally, the humans inhabiting it are not happy about it and fight back, some of whom are part of what is known as the Resistance. However, the Illyri and the humans find that they have to work together to overcome a new and common enemy.
As others have mentioned, this book is written in a choppy manner, but I liked that. I found it helped me to visualize how the story action occurred, as if it were a movie.
If you enjoyed Divergent, The Host or The Hunger Games, I think you would be interested in this book. I have a feeling the movie Jupiter Ascending will be in the same realm as well.
I'm looking forward to the next.
