5 star reviews for Milijun, the first book in the Series:
WOW, what an amazing book from author Clayton Graham. It was excellent and genuinely captured my imagination. The writing was superb and it hurtled along at a thrilling pace. This is a prime example of how to write an outstanding debut novel and I can’t wait to read more. BARNSEY’S BOOKS
A book that digs deep into the human psyche and comes out on the other side with exceptional insight … that is a sci-fi, futuristic, alien-packed book that I can get behind. The timelessness of this book hinges on the philosophical aspects; this is more than a book about aliens trying to experiment on humans and seeing whether inter-species contact will be peaceful … it is a book about human nature, our behavior to one another, and our ambitions for the future.

No, I didn’t sneeze…that’s just one example of the creativity proffered in this expansive Sci-Fi Fantasy of aliens and humans. Names aren’t the only thing author Clayton Graham does so well; there’s detailed technologies to discover, foreign landscapes to explore, and of course, aliens to meet.
Although a fairly comprehensible stand-alone, I would recommend reading the first book first, as I lacked understanding of some of the nuances between characters and history. It wasn’t difficult to catch up though, as I came to realize the two lead characters, Laura and Jason, have been abducted by aliens. Not for the typical pre-conceived reasons however (no probes here!) The aliens are hoping to create a hybrid race that will be capable of space exploration on a scale that is beyond the ability of either species presently.
It’s a grand notion, (although it may have been less forced if the humans had been recruited willingly), yet it’s not without obstacles. As ever, mistrust, misperceptions, and misplaced loyalties stand in the way of true partnership on any scale, setting the stage for intense action and tangled mysteries. Great fodder for any reading enthusiast!
Alien meets The Arrival, with a hint of The Expanse, the Milijun Series holds as much promise as the coalition it characterizes. I could easily be drawn into a NetFlix Mini Series!

Surprise after surprise! I was utterly confounded! This premise is so intriguing, so many riddles..I love it! The writing is smart, clear, and, at moments, really lovely. Extremely well written and chock full of intrigue, suspense, spies, murder and wonderfully descriptive characters, places and events. This novel is fast paced, exciting and edge of your seat stuff! Not only is this an exciting, action-packed paged turner – I love the intelligence reflected, the witty dialogue, and the genuine depth in the characters’ emotions. This is an impeccable, perfectly-paced, emotional and gripping read, with a fantastic world building. I hope there’s a sequel to this series, to see how the different types of aliens and humans interact in a devastated Earth.
A modern version of old-style classic sci-fi stories, Amidst Alien Stars by Clayton Graham continues on from Book 1, where a human family – Laura Sinclair and her son Jason – were abducted by aliens.
Now in Book 2 of the Milijun series, they learn that they’re not the only prisoners among the stars. Alien masters control their lives completely and only pooling all their skills and knowledge can bring even a sliver of light and hope into their doom-laden existence.
Why do the aliens perceive Earth as their enemy?
What is intended for the mutant hybrid children born from the forced breeding program?
How can Laura and the others send a warning to Earth to prepare for the Armageddon their captors are preparing to enact?
A fascinatingly terrifying what if…? future scenario that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Well I want to read more. I found it a bit confusing to start off with as a stand alone book, trying to work out who was who and where, and kept wanting to look at the map and index to make sure I was in the right place. However an amazing story, and really made me wonder how I would react in the same situation, and what happens in the future. Sad that conflict continues regardless of crises, here and elsewhere. I need to read the book again as I feel I missed out on much detail, and would definitely watch it again if it were a movie.
