Summary: Fresh RECRUIT
Review: Think what you will about the quality of literature these days, but I -- for one -- am happy that any book or series of books is fanning the flames of interest for children to read ... ALIAS: RECRUITED is certainly written for the budding adolescent but even the more deeply seasoned fan of ABC's hit spy TV series can find moments of enjoyment in this brisk tale of Sydney Bristow's 'recruitment' into what she believes is the CIA but turns out to be SD-6.The situation is generic enough: the college student draws the attention of Wilson, a SD-6 recruiting officer who gives her a one-time-only chance-of-a-lifetime opportunity to join what he says is the CIA. Within six months, Sydney's outperforming all of those recruits that came before her, and, as a result, she's moved up into the 'field agent' status without her knowledge of being sent on the first mission. There's some relatively simple prose, a perhaps all-too-common villain, and some moments of rolling the eyes, but RECRUITED still manages to muster some of ALIAS's small screen magic by putting the reader smack dab inside the mind of a budding Bristow. Portrayed possibly just a tad too young for what her true age is in the book, Bristow is nonetheless likeable and full of energy at being selected to serve her country. Lynn Mason (author) does a wonderful job at presenting an entirely plausible backstory for Sydney's unseen years as an adolescent in creating memories of incidents that, inevitably, would easily have influenced the character viewers of the show come to know. In fact, Sydney comes across as not-much-more than a modern day Huckleberry Finn ... with ample patriotism, a great 'bod,' and James Bond gadgets! It's a fun read, intended for fans of the show. Taken in that measure, RECRUITED should get readers signing onboard for other adventures in print.

Summary: Fun Look at Younger Sydney
Review: This book answers the how, where and why questions of Sydney's recruitment into SD-6, so is great backstory for hard core Alias fans like myself. The writing was ok, but could be better, and would probably not be of any interest to those who are not fans of the TV series. I was disappointed that the book did not go into what is alluded to in later installments, that Sydney had know Arvin Sloan before this meeting.

Summary: Great insight into the beginning of Alias
Review: This book is a must for any Alias fan. It details how Sydney became a part of SD-6. The book is very well written with alot of plot movement. Many questions from the show are answered and it is nice to see how Sydney's life developed. The best part of the book is seeing Sydney's transformation from insecure college student to a confident agent.

Summary: ALIAS Recriuted
Review: This book like anything that has to do with ALIAS is great. This book is not about the piolet episode. The book is basically about Sydney's life before she gets recruited to SD-6 and 6 months after she gets recruited. It tells you about her first mission. And remember Noah Hicks well they meet for the first time. I great book. I couldn't put it down.

Summary: An Awesome Book! I Give It 10 stars!
Review: This book was an awesome to read! It depicts the events in Sydney's life before she and when she's recruited by SD-6. It gives so much detail about everything write down to the "faint scratching noises of the key in the lock behind her". It shows the normal part of Sydney's life before she was recruited and shows she had the same problems as every other college goer. This is a great book to read in your spare time or just on your own.

Summary: action packed excitement
Review: This is such a great book, even if you haven't seen the show before. In fact after reading this book you'll be hooked. Basically, it answers a lot of questions about Sydney's life before SD-6. I can't wait until the next one comes out. It's one book you'll never want to put down and the describtions were written very well.

Summary: Light and Breezy
Review: Today I read Alias: Recruited by Lynn Mason. It's a prequel to the Alias TV series which I love. The story was quick and breezy and I finished the 207 page book in a little over 2 and a half hours.
Not really much to say, if you watch the show then it just go into depth on Sydney's acceptance into SD-6, her freshman year of college and her first mission.
