Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Confusing
Review: This book served to utterly confuse me. My two favorite subjects are politics and sci-fi, but this book still seemed to dissapoint me. All along the beginning it seemed as if there were information that Anthony just wanted us to already know. If you don't think exactly like the author you'll probably get lost.

I got the basic point of what was happening, but didn't understand everything until the last 30 pages of the book. It's an okay book if you really try to follow it, but I personally didn't like it.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Very nice
Review: This is the first Patricia Anthony novel I have read, but certainly won't be my last. Whether you are a UFO buff or not, it is likely that you are familiar with the `Greys' (little alien creatures purportedly from Zeta 2 Reticuli). Certainly, Whitley Strieber has gained much attention in his novels delving into alien abductions (Communion was made into a movie).

In `Brother Termite', Anthony explores a fictional account of an extraterrestrial alien society (`Greys') who have infiltrated to the highest levels of government, and indeed, are the power behind the government (believe me, many people `out there' believe this has already happened to a certain degree;-). What follows is more of a political thriller than science fiction, but it works nicely on both accounts.

Anthony goes inside the alien mind and culture, and presents a fascinating look into the `hive', their strengths and weaknesses. At stake is not only our government as we know it, but the human race as well. Quickly paced and well thought out, I hope it finds a place on your book shelf. Between 1 and 10, `Brother Termite' gets a 7.
