Summary: Piecing the clues together
Review: "Silent Zone" is an entertaining story of how a small group of scientists pieced together clues about alien plans to invade the Earth. I didn't expect much from the story, because, well, everyone knows how it ends. But the authors take some well known UFO folklore and they weave a good story using some interesting characters. Part of the reason this book works for me is I kept picturing "Data" as the funky lead character Dr. Okun.
If you like good "alien visits/attacks earth" themes, try the "Rama" series by Arthur C. Clarke, "The Other End of Time" by Frederik Pohl (sequel due out in November) or the classic "Ender's Game" series by Orson Scott Card

Summary: This is quite possibly the best book I have ever read!
Review: At first, I wasn't sure if I wanted to read the book because I didn't think it would be as good as the movie, but once I picked it up, I couldn't put it down. -Chris B.

Summary: Good Book for Sci-Fi Fans
Review: Being a fan of the movie, ID4, I ordered this book because this book starts at the very beginning. We've all seen the movie, but I was curious to find out how it all started. The book centers around Dr. Okun, and how he became involved with Area 51, and the trials he goes through finding the clues to the alien invaders. This book is a nice addition to the movie, and can't wait the read "War in the desert." If anyone has a used hardcover of the book Independence Day: War in the Desert, they can sell me, please email me at rking@king7.com

Summary: Brilliant!! Buy it!!!!
Review: I'm not real big on sci-fi books, I absolutely loved the film and so read this and I really enjoyed it. It really is hard to put down once you've started it, and turns out to be a really good story all about Dr Okun before the whole alien invasion thing in the film starts, I really recommend this book to anyone!!

Summary: OK, but not what I expected.
Review: ID4: Silent Zone was a very good novel, but the action was a bit lacking. The first few chapters were good enough to grab my attention, but after that, it was a bit dry. Overall, ID4: SZ was good, but I wouldn't read it again.

Summary: Excellent
Review: In my opinion, "Silent Zone" was one of the best written books I have ever read. Stephen Molstad wrote this in a manner that was easy to follow and a joy to read. The style he used kept me interested and above all, open minded. The adventures that Dr. Okun take are entertaining and keep the story flowing. It is a must read for any sci-fi fan or someone looking for a good book.

Summary: Must-read for any sci-fi fan, or a good book for any reader
Review: Independence Day: Silent Zone takes place before the alien attack and is about research on the alien ship. Okun, a young and spirited scientist, gets hired to Area 51 to work on research. As all the scientists work, Okun finds a huge government cover-up to hide secrets, so work is limited. Silent Zone is a really good book. Its plot is incredible, and the writing style is easy to read. Okun, the protagonist, is an interesting character (interesting is to say the least...) He was written to be cool, and he does come off as that, for the most part. He also can be considered a nerd, but he's still cool. The other scientists at Area 51 are also interesting characters. The writing is descriptive, and that pays off to add detail to science fiction. That style also keeps the reader interested to read on. The prolouge, which takes place on July 5 after the attacks, is one of the best introductions I have ever read. It is also very descriptive, and is sets a very fun tone for the rest of the book. Once I read that, I realized that the book would be a really good one. I really suggest that you read this book. It is a read-and-read-again book, so I also suggest that you buy it. Read, and then enjoy.
