Aoléon and Gilbert receive a special mission from PAX, a wanted criminal and leader of the Martian resistance movement to investigate the Luminon of Mars, who he suspects is planning an invasion of Earth to steal its milk cows. Gilbert has an encounter with the Luminess (the mate of the Luminon) and discovers something strange about her during a procession, and the duo are chased by the Royal Paladin Guard.
At Aoléon’s home, Gilbert meets Aoléon’s family, her sister Una, mother Phobos and father Deimos as well as her overzealous pet Zoot. He is also introduced to Bizwat, a covert operator and Procyon Commando, who uses his Saturn Pizza delivery job as a cover.
Gilbert then gets to visit the Martian Space Academy (Aoléon’s school) where he encounters Aoléon’s nemesis, Charm Lepton and her friend Quarkina, as well as receiving a history lesson on the Martian people by Plutarch Xenocrates. After class, Gilbert and Aoléon get to train in zero-G and Gilbert is treated to a Psi-ball match between Martian Space Academy and Martian Science Academy.

I received a digital arc copy of this book from iRead Book Tours in exchange for my honest and unbiased review. All are my own opinion and is not compensated by any individual, organization, or company. This might contain minor spoilers.
The second part of the Aoleon the Martian Girl had never let me down. It still got the cool illustrations that I would never get bored of looking! I loved looking at the graphics. It is amazingly looking and very appropriate to the story. Definitely something kids will adore and adults, too.
I love reading it. I felt like I am actually learning our world’s and galaxy’s deepest secrets. It makes me want to fly to Mars right now, go take selfie pictures in there and post it on my social media accounts. I do think it will boost Mars tourism. Amazing! It made me doubt the author’s racial identity. It would not surprise me if one day Mr. LeVasseur admits he is actually a Martian.
Undeniably entertaining it is. I seriously cannot deny that the author is very witty because this book got a well and witty writing. I have been experiencing quite a few jaw drops due to a lot of terms that I feel only came to light after reading this and due to unexpected twists this book had.
Seriously, I can’t get enough. Not only was it entertaining to look at and read, it is also actually very funny. It made me giggled and laughed. The idea of cow milks and pizzas actually caught me off guard but surprisingly, I buy them. I honestly think the idea was weird but it is unique and original and that is good news.
I would definitely recommend it to grade school kids who like reading science stuffs.
Mr. LeVasseur enjoys crafting good stories based on lovable characters designed to translate well to multiple media formats such as books, games, movies, and toys. He lives in New York when he is not commuting between Southern California and Olympus Mons, Mars. His hobbies include writing, 3D animation, musical composition, and intergalactic space travel. He also enjoys various sports such as skiing, running, and exospheric skydiving.
