Domination (CHAOS #3)
Author: Jon S. Lewis
Genre: YA Science Fiction/Fantasy
Release Date: April 16, 2013
Publisher: Thomas Nelson
288 pages
Description:THEIR GOAL IS SIMPLE: TOTAL DOMINATION.
With six arms and jaws that can snap a man in two, the warmongering race of aliens known as the Thule has conquered every planet they’ve attacked.
And now their invasion of Earth has begun.
Humanity’s only hope springs from a mysterious Thule legend about a Betrayer, who they believe will rise up and destroy their people. The American government tried to manufacture their own Betrayer by injecting children with Thule blood but time after time the experiment failed . . . until Colt McAlister.
A decade later, Colt is a 16-year-old cadet at the CHAOS Military Academy where he’s training to defend mankind. But he’s afraid that the alien blood may be turning him into a Thule—and he’s beginning to suspect that fulfilling his role as the Betrayer may cost him everything.
Experience a cosmic battle filled with high-tech gear, gateways to other planets, and ultimate stakes. Not everyone will survive. But heroes will rise up and step into their destiny in this earth-shaking conclusion to the C.H.A.O.S trilogy.
Domination is the final book in the CHAOS trilogy; a young adult science fiction dystopian series that follows CHAOS Military Cadet and teenage hero Colt McAlister as he continues to help fight the alien race that threatens to eradicate the Earth and wipe out humanity. After the government injected Cole and other children with Thule alien blood, hoping to create the legendary Betrayer, he fears that he might be turning more Thule than human. Cole's destiny as The Betrayer may cost him more than just his life - it could very well cost him his identity and his soul.
This was a fantastic and thrilling final book in a wonderfully crafted dystopian trilogy. Cole's character matured and went through major changes and growth in this novel, which only led me to love him more as the main character. Cole is strong, courageous and smart, but he's also humble, afraid and unsure of himself at times - which makes him very realistic as a character and easy to identify with for the reader. The plot was very well written with a fast pace and vivid details and descriptions that immediately draws the reader into the story. I was hooked from the first page of the book and I didn't stop reading until the final word. The story weaves a great story and blends action, science fiction, adventure, dystopia, and fantasy into a novel that is sure to please fans of all genres. The writing was expertly done and shows the immense talent of the author and his ability to paint a realistic picture of a dystopian world that the reader can lose themselves in. Highly recommended for fans of all genres, especially YA dystopian.

Colt McAlister was having the summer of his life. He spent his days surfing and his nights playing guitar on the beach with friends. He even met a girl and got his first car. But everything changes when his parents are killed in a freak accident.
He's forced to leave his old life behind and move to Arizona with his grandfather. The only person he knows at the new high school is a childhood friend named Dani. And Oz, a guy he's sure he's never met but who is strangely familiar.
But what if his parents' death wasn't an accident? His mother, an investigative reporter, was going to expose a secret mind-control program run by one of the world's largest companies. Before she could release the story, what if agents from Trident Biotech made sure she couldn't go public?
Vowing to uncover the truth, Colt gets drawn into a secret world of aliens, shapeshifters, flying motorcycles, and invisible gateways.

Earth's last line of defense against the coming alien invasion is 16-year-old surfer Colt McAlister.

The United States government believes Colt holds the key to our survival, so they're sending him to the CHAOS Military Academy along with his best friends Oz and Danielle. There they'll be trained to defend Earth against a swarm of alien shape shifters known as the Thule. But someone is trying to eliminate Colt before he can lead that charge. Shocked to learn about key events in his past and unsure who he can trust, he is alienated and on the run.
