4-6Resisters series.
Twelve-year-old Ethan Blackwood (The Resisters) is a young showoff with some potential to lead his fellow resisters in a futuristic, alien-controlled Earth. He flouts the community's rules, then ropes his comrades into a dangerous, unapproved operation to recruit new resisters. The thin plot and bland adult characters are drawbacks, but video-game-quality action keeps the story in high gear for adventure lovers.
