The
Lives of Tao by Wesley Chu, review
at Fantasy
Book Critic
When
out-of-shape IT technician Roen woke up and started hearing voices in his head,
he naturally assumed he was losing it.
He
wasn’t.
He now
has a passenger in his brain – an ancient alien life-form called Tao, whose
race crash-landed on Earth before the first fish crawled out of the oceans. Now
split into two opposing factions – the peace-loving, but under-represented
Prophus, and the savage, powerful Genjix – the aliens have been in a state of
civil war for centuries. Both sides are searching for a way off-planet, and the
Genjix will sacrifice the entire human race, if that’s what it takes.
Meanwhile,
Roen is having to train to be the ultimate secret agent. Like that’s going to
end up well…
