Battlefield Earth: A Saga of the Year 3000 by L. Ron Hubbard

3.0

This would have been a five star book easily if it was a third of the size. The story starts when the human race is practically extinct with just a few pockets here and there. We were conquered a thousand years earlier by aliens who are now mining out the planet. It was interesting as Jonny Tyler was captured by the Cyclos made into a pet and then educated to do slave labor. His rise as savior was perfect as there wasn’t anything that he could do wrong. Planning and scheming and trickery at every turn
