    Such a fun book with a female lead character so full of pranks such as crop circles and flying cows! "Yeah right, thought Gilbert. That means a lot, coming from a nutty alien girl who attracts trouble like flies to a cow patty." (Pg. 114) And Aoleon loves excitement. Fantastic story, beautiful graphics, complete with a glossary in case you don't know what a parsec is: a unit of astronomical distance in which 1 parsec = 3.26 light years. Middle school readers will laugh and enjoy the ride!

    Gilbert watches the stars and dreams of aliens. Then it happens, Gilbert sees a light and meets Aoleon. A Martian, she is visiting earth making crop circles and having fun. Soon there are flying cows, space chases, and fights with other aliens. Well the plot is average, the graphics are outstanding, hence a score of four. Young teenage boys will enjoy the book.

    Aoleon The Martian Girl is a middle grade sci fi story. This review is for part one of the book. I don't usually review this genre but thought I would give it a try. I really liked it and think that most children, boys or girls would enjoy the book. The main character is a Gilbert, young farm boy from Nebraska and a young Martian girl. There are crop circles appearing in Mr.Johnson's fields and he thinks that Gilbert is the culprit, but that is not the case but Gilbert goes to investigate and finds Aoleon, a Martian girl just sitting within the crop circle. Now this is most peculiar as Gilbert has never seen such a thing as crop circles let alone a Martian girl. His curiosity is piqued though so he goes along with her on her saucer. Of course any young child enjoys a good adventure and so does Gilbert. I think it will be fun to see what adventures await him with Aoleon in the next chapters.The book is illustrated, by the author, and the pictures are very vivid and imaginative that will be sure to delight the reader. I think at this age pictures that go along with the story are a great thing. It gives the childs imagination something to give them an insight into the story.

    This story is so fast paced I was dragged along like the flying cows. When you read it you’ll get the thing about those cows.Gilbert is woken up from another weird dream . This one about killer robots. In no hurry to return to that dream, he goes over to look at the night outside through his telescope.Spotting strange lights in his neighbors farm, the one where the strange crop circles kept appearing, he slips out to investigate and literally bumps into adventure, in the form of Aoleon, a martian girlThe bright lights also catch the farmers eye and he discovers Gilbert and Aoleon, the martian girl, chasing them to her ship where they take off to the skies.It’s a laugh riot as Aoleon pilots her baby blue space craft around the world, giving Gilbert the ride of his life while she dodges the USAF fighter jets that pursue them.I received this book in my dropbox and chose to read it there. The illustrations are black and white on my kindle and don't do them justice.Excellent descriptions compliment the exciting illustrations, so brilliant in colors they explode off the pages.Young and older readers alike will be enchanted by Gilbert and Aoleon and this authors world.I understand there are four more adventures in this saga and an iTunes album.I plan to follow these adventures. You’ll wish you had a friend like Aoleon, and envy Gilbert as he explores his dreams of space.An out of this world delight.

    Lots of kids have dreams. Good dreams. Bad dreams. Scary dreams. Fun dreams. Gilbert Sullivan has dreams too, about giant killer robots that chase him. To add to his troubles, Gilbert’s mother and father fight a lot. He prays for an angel to take him away. And his prayers are answered. Sort of.Aoléon: The Martian Girl, a novel for middle grade readers by Author Brent LeVasseur, takes the reader on a journey through the universe with, not an angel, but a Martian girl. She’s looking for the perfect spot to make crop circles in the fields when Gilbert spots what he thinks is a star but turns out to be a space ship flown by Aoléon. The reader is soon flying around the planet with the alien. They see floating cows, famous places such as the Arc de Triomphe and other spots, while being chased by U. S. fighter jets. Aoléon and Gilbert are delightful characters. To add to the beauty of the book, the author has spread colorful illustrations throughout the story, showing us not only what the characters look like but also giving us a glimpse of outer space as the kids zip through the sky on what possibly is an important mission. I don’t want to give anything away so that’s all I’ll say. Continuous action and lively conversation make for a great story as the reader learns more about the boy and the alien girl.Aoléon: The Martian Girl would make a great addition to school classrooms and libraries, as well as your public library. This is a nice beginning to a new series.I was given an ARC of the book for my honest review.

    After quickly flicking through the pages of this book the thought that came to mind was “oooo! this is going to be fun!” The story was charming with quite a bit of dry humour that a young person would enjoy. Brent used vivid descriptions to describe Gilbert’s home in the Nebraskan countryside. I especially enjoyed reading them as they transported me back to my childhood living on a farm in the prairies. The artwork just popped and I felt myself wanting to see this as a film.

    What is so special about this book is the fact that Brent uses a fun method to teach young people about astronomy, geography, physics and science. (don’t tell your kids!) The vocabulary is pretty impressive – this book makes learning fun! The end of the first book is really action-packed and I hadn’t expected a cliff-hanger. I really want to know what happens next…when is the next book coming out? :D

    Gilbert Sullivan loves astronomy especially since crop circles have been appearing in his neighbor's field recently. So, the next time he sees strange lights in Farmer Neville's field, he goes to investigate. Gilbert finds more than he bargained for when runs straight into Aoleon the Martian and her spaceship. Aolean takes Gilbert for a wild ride all the way back to her home planet, Mars. An awesome adventure for any space or alien fans. As soon as Aoleon and Gilbert meet, Gilbert is up against something new and different, and instead of being scared and judgmental, he opens his mind up to a new experience and has a ton of fun. Aoleon takes Gilbert all over Earth and then to Mars on an epic adventure. The science behind the spaceship, healing and technology on Mars is really well explained and interesting, especially the flying cows!. I was very surprised that when Gilbert arrived on Mars that they did not have a perfect society, advanced technology sure, but political and societal problems that rival Earth’s. Now, Aoleon and Gilbert will be the ones to help a leader of Mars. The pictures in this are all digital and very current, which was a little lost on me, but enjoyable for kids. An amusing, entertaining and smart adventure of a boy and an alien that is perfect for middle graders..

    Aoleon The Martian Girl: Science Fiction Saga - Part 1 First Contact by Brent LeVasseurPaperback: 150 pages Publisher: Aoléon Press (January 31, 2015) Language: English ISBN-10: 097912851X ISBN-13: 978-0979128516Approximate Lexile: 730Publisher’s Blurb:Mars wants our cows (yes, cows!), and they're sending an invasion fleet to take them from us. Only Gilbert and Aoleon the Martian Girl stand in their way! Gilbert always longed for adventure, but now that he has it, he's not sure that it's everything it's cracked up to be. Ever since the night he met Aoleon the Martian Girl sitting in the middle of a crop circle in Farmer Johnson's field, it's been nothing but one wild ride after another. From fighting off swarms of giant killer robots to dealing with strange aliens from another world - never mind trekking across the vast Martian desert and skyboarding deep into the center of a (hopefully) extinct volcano - Gilbert has had his hands full just trying to keep up with it all. And now it's up to him and his new friend, Aoleon, to face off against the evil Martian overlord and keep our cows safe at home where they belong. The launch of this exciting and innovatively illustrated new series takes the reader deep into the heart of an unforgettable and out-of-this-world friendship in a story full of hijinks, hilarity, and good old-fashioned fun. Join Gilbert and Aoleon in this exciting middle-grade science fiction adventure today!I really wanted to like this book, but the author made it very difficult. Looking at the high ratings on Goodreads, Amazon, etc., I frequently wondered if I was reading the same book. The writing is often stilted, with an emphasis on telling rather than showing, and the author lacks a fundamental understanding of how to use commas. I wondered how it got past an editor in its comma-less condition. After a little research, it appears that this book and its sequels are self-published. Any author who self-publishes should invest in a GOOD editor, not just one who got an A in English that one time.So many things that bothered me… the neighbor’s name appears to be Old Farmer Johnson. Likewise, Airman Buzz. Is Buzz his last name? How trite can we be? And does the author really think an airman whose job is to monitor the skies for incoming threats would be playing games on his smart phone while on duty? That seems to me like a one-way ticket to court martial. Aoleon is the only real female character in the book, and she comes off as a little bit irresponsible.The book says it’s aimed at middle grades; the simple language and straightforward plot make it more suited to grades 2-4. Then the author throws in a lot of science-speak that brings it back up to middle grades—or even high school. I get the impression that maybe he doesn’t hang out with many kids, so he’s not sure how they talk or think.The illustrations are pretty—especially the ones of the planets as Aoleon is inbound toward earth.It’s sad—this book had potential, but it remains untapped.Who would like this book: Kids grades 2-5 who like stories about space.Possible objectionable material: Sneaking out a night. General mischief.(I received an advance reader copy from NetGalley in exchange for a review. As you can see, it’s an honest review!)

    We’ve all heard the phrase curiosity killed the cat, for Gilbert curiosity led to a discovery that few people knew about. Gilbert had been having strange dreams ever since crop circles appeared in his neighbor, farmer Johnson’s corn field and he wasn’t sure what they meant. One night Gilbert saw a mysterious light over the farm, he decided to go investigate and finds a Martian girl named Aoléon sitting in the field.When farmer Johnson sees them he starts shooting, thinking they’re vandals. The two new friends make a quick getaway in Aoléon’s space ship. As they’re leaving, Gilbert accidentally causes farmer Johnson’s cows to start flying and gets the attention of the U.S. air force. Gilbert was wishing for an angel to take him away from life on the farm, what he got instead was an adventure that most kids only dream about.Aoléon: The Martian Girl Part One by Brent LeVasseur is an awesomely illustrated outer space adventure. This book not only includes an excellent story that kids will love but there is also some great 3D animated pictures that bring the story to life. Even if you don’t like the story, the art will still make you want this book. I found myself spending a lot of time looking at the space photos and wondering how long it took to make them. The pictures of the cities on Mars were enough to make your jaw drop.If the visual art itself doesn’t convince you to get this book the story should. Its intended for a middle school audience, it has lots of humor and some good lessons on how it’s important to help others. I loved how Brent LeVasseur built suspense leading up to Gilbert and Aoléon meeting for the first time. Gilbert comes across as a nice kid that is looking for some excitement and Aoléon who is a thrill seeker, is the girl who will change everything for him. This is a tale about friendship with non-stop action that adults will like as much as kids.I think Aoléon: The Martian Girl Part One is a great book to get kids into reading Science Fiction and Fantasy. The characters are lovable and easy for kids to relate to, the art is fantastic and the story moves quickly. I also loved the explanation on how the space ship works and the description of life on Mars. This is the kind of book that will show kids how much fun reading can be. Adults will appreciate it also because it will remind them of why they like to read as kids. The best part is that this book is the beginning of a series and if the storytelling in this one is any indication, this series is going to be one fascinating thrill ride.

    The surprises in store for you in this installment are numerous but one thing is for certain, the end is coming...it's the "for whom" part that will keep you guessing.

    Last time we met up with our motley crew, we were still seeking Pax, an end to the invasion/destruction of Terra, and trying to rescue Aoleon's parents, all while trying to stay two steps ahead of the Luminon. Think they accomplished it? Well, with a little stealth, a lot of trust in one another, and the powerhouse that is Helios, anything is possible. There are journeys across the galaxy to take, enemies to annihilate, and friendships to remember for all time. It's a mixed bag of emotions with plenty of action and close calls to spare. What? You didn't think I was going to actually TELL you what happened, right? Good! Because I'm not, but I am going to say a few more words about the story...



    This time around, we get to feast our eyes on more illustrations than ever before. From fight scenes to stare downs to touching goodbyes (again, not telling between whom!), there's a lot going on here and it's shared in both word and image. Aoleon has never looked cuter nor Gilbert stronger. Bizwatt is definitely space catch worthy while Helios is full of untapped humor with Zoot close at hand to chase your worries away with a wet kiss. Easy to spot who is who among the crew, and among the villains...just a quick note, keep an eye on that Luminon character. You'll see what I mean.

    All in all, though not a space traveling reader myself, I enjoyed this series from Terra to Mars and back. The story was a blast (pun absolutely intended) with characters that remind us that anyone is capable of great things, no matter how big, small, or what planet they come from. Recommended read for Middle Grade Science Fiction fans of Terra...I mean Earth, and beyond.

    The final part of this Saga but not last. We see what it to survive. They find out who is leading Grant, Bizwat and Aoléon to their final destination. They seem ready to save Aoléon parents. Zoots is with them.

    You are dragged into the adventure and wanting to read and turn the pages to find out if they make it our not. This part is really action packed. They are met with a small army. There is some tense moments that are taken place on Earth.

    Once again Brent does a wonderful job with the pictures. I have been drawn to look at the pictures or images a few times and leaves you to wonder what going to happen next. They meet Pax. They came to do a job.

    They head to the mothership. They find out the truth about what been happening to Mars and their galactic plant on Mars. They do seem to find the Boars and Cows that went missing. The Earth seem to be invade Earth. Aoleon and her group figure out what Luminon and his plans are. Will defeat Luminon and his army?

    Want to read the reviews on this series. I have them all, so here are the other four parts. Aoleon The Martian Girl: - Science Fiction Saga Part 1, Aoleon The Martian Girl: - Science Fiction Saga Part 2, Aoleon The Martian Girl: - Science Fiction Saga Part 3, Aoleon The Martian Girl: - Science Fiction Saga Part 4. This is good for boys and girls. It quite a good action and adventure series book for children.

    I am sad to read this book. Because it is the ending of a journey with great friends, Aoléon, Gilbert, Bizwat, Helios, and Zoot. I have really grown close to all of them through the course of my reading these books. They are truly friends and not just characters in a story.I had to throw up a fist when the first shooting scene happened and Bizwat where he learned to shoot. Gilbert replied" Duck Hunt" Nintendo Entertainment System. This is because I can remember playing this game for hours. One of my favorite games to play. This was a good shout out to an old classic game. As always the graphics in this book are breath taking. They just leap off the pages of my computer monitor. They are detailed and colorful. The big battle at the end was a high note. I was glad that it was not just a short battle as all of this was leading up to the end. Again I am sad to see this story end and hope to see Gilbert and Aoleon again in the future. I had a fun time reading these books.

THE GREAT PYRAMID OF CYDONIA

CHAPTER TWENTY

40° 27′ 7.06″ NORTH, 9° 55′ 41.83″ WEST / CYDONIA MENSAE / PLANET MARS

A trail wound its way up around the spire of basaltic rock known as Pylónes tou Theoú (The Pillars of God). The path around the spire was only two handbreadths wide and very steep, which meant that Gilbert had to cling to any rock handholds that were available, his face so close to the rock that he could see tiny crystal formations embedded in the rock face as he sidestepped his way to the top. He tried not to look down. The cliff dropped more than a thousand feet below him where it abruptly transitioned into the dead sea bottom.

They emerged from the canyon system on top of a large mesa where they could see a mountain outcropping in the far distance. They currently stood about ten miles away from this mountain, but because it was so large, it could easily be seen from a distance.

This mountain is really odd, Gilbert thought to himself, which after careful examination didn’t look like a mountain at all but a giant, five-sided pentagonal pyramid. Then Gilbert noticed another mountain that resembled an enormous profiled face — it was the face of Cydonia. Gilbert recalled some of the photos he had seen of the face of Mars on the NASA Web site from the Viking Orbiter and later ones from the Mars Global Surveyor.

Is that what I think it is? Gilbert queried.

That is the Great Pyramid of Cydonia, the largest of the ancient pyramids on Mars, more than two kilometers wide at its base and built more than two hundred fifty megacycles ago by the ancient forerunners, or what the Draconians call ‘Paa’Tal.’ They were here back when Mars still had oceans, Aoléon said with a wave of her arm. We have arrived at our destination.

Gilbert felt tremendous relief wash over him. They had made it! They had survived a saucer crash, starvation, a sandstorm, a paladin attack, a giant slor and, not to mention, had traveled more than fifteen hundred miles from the crash site. It was a tremendous feat just to have made it this far. Who are the Paa’Tal?

Do you remember Plutarch Xenocrates talking about them in anthropology class?

Vaguely.

The Paa’Tal are the ancient forerunners who built the stargates, the black hole, and wormhole jump-gates and who deposited the reptiloids into this bubbleverse 4 1/2 billion years ago. We do not know much about them, except that they once colonized most of the known galaxy, and sometime in the distant past simply vanished, leaving these giant megaliths on countless worlds as the only traces of their existence, explained Aoléon.

That thing is H-UGE! This side alone has to be at least two miles long. What are the pyramid and face for?

"Cydonia is an ancient city built by your distant ancestors for the Paa’Tal. It is a Lyraen city constructed to honor the constellation Orion with its geometric layout falling on the nineteenth parallel. The nineteenth parallel is a nexus of planetary energy, counterpoint to Olympus Mons and Elysium — well, at least it used to be before the pole shift. The Paa’Tal built the Great Pyramid to use the crystals embedded inside the rock to harness the planet’s energy. This energy powers a stargate."

What about the face?

"It is an ancient burial tomb. Cydonia is
