The Dangerous Days of Daniel X (Daniel X Series #1)

by James Patterson, Michael Ledwidge (Other)

Overview

Daniel X is closing in on his parents' killer. But in this thrilling adventure, danger—and the world's deadliest aliens—lurk in the shadows.

Daniel X has the greatest power of all: the ability to create. His secret abilities—like being able to manipulate objects and animals with his mind or to recreate himself in any shape he chooses—have helped him survive. But Daniel doesn't have a normal life. He is the protector of the earth, the Alien Hunter, with a mission beyond what anyone's imagining.

From the day that his parents were brutally murdered before of his very eyes, Daniel has used his unique gifts to hunt down their assassin. Finally, with the help of The List, bequeathed to him in his parents' dying breath, he is closing in on the killer.

Now, on his own, he vows to take on his father's mission—and to take vengeance in the process.
