Title: Doom: Infernal Sky


1
Doom Infernal Sky
  • Book by Brad Linaweaver
  • PowerPoint by Jordan Imoehl

2
Main Characters
  • Flynn (Fly) Taggart
  • Arlene Sanders
  • Albert Gallatin
  • Jill
  • Commander Hildago

3
Flynn Taggart
  • Fly is a major in the United States Marine Corps.
    He was positioned on Mars as a Corporal, but he
    was not allowed to work because he was court
    marshaled on Earth. When the alien invasion
    started at the Union Aerospace Corporation (UAC),
    Fly was being guarded, but easily escaped his
    guards and joined the fight.

4
Arlene Sanders
  • Arlene is a Pfc in the United States Marine
    Corps. She started out working as a scientist
    for the UAC, but then joined the Corps. She was
    in the front lines when the aliens(Freds are the
    name that civilians use when talking about them)
    invaded the UAC base.

5
Albert Gallatin
  • Albert Gallatin is a retired sniper from the
    corps. He is Arlenes finance. He joined Arlene
    and Fly when they landed in Salt Lake City.
    Albert is a very strong willed Mormon, and is
    very religious. He always quotes the Mormon
    bible when he feels he is in danger.

6
Jill
  • Jill is a fourteen year old computer genius. The
    group met her at the Mormon base. She goes with
    the team to Los Angles and helps them fly their
    plane with the experience she has from a flight
    simulator game.

7
Commander Hildago
  • Hildago is a captain in the Corps. He becomes
    the captain of the team when they land a plane
    in Hawaii. He is a really strict commander. He
    would rather focus on how clean your uniform is
    than how much danger you are in.

8
Setting
  • The book starts out on earth then the main
    characters go to one of Mars moons. Then, by
    some weird means of transport, they suddenly
    appear on an unknown planet. The book starts out
    in about 2050, but because of the weird physics
    of space they are only ageing by days when years
    are going by on Earth.

9
Problem
  • The problem in the book is that two different
    sets of aliens are at war because of how they
    interoperate a twelve million year old bible.
    The funny thing is that none of these aliens ever
    die. They are considered lostwhen they have
    less than eight percent of their original body
    left. If they dont have more than eight percent
    of themselves left the turn into a ghost like
    state until a new baby is born which then they
    take the babies body.

10
Other problems
  • Aliens struggle over which way to interpret a
    book, Earth has become just another way of
    revenge for one side of the fight. So in turn
    the other side tries to help earth.

11
  • As the team tries to solve the problem they
    encounter different clues all leading to the
    reason that Earth was attacked. After they find
    this answer out, they then proceed to help one
    side of the aliens to defeat the other. Even
    though they have done this, it is to late for
    Earth when they get back. The book then ends
    with them wondering what has happened to earth
    when they have been gone.

12
Just for tell
  • Although this book sounds like a big sci-fi there
    are many sub plots that have to do with mystery,
    romance, and horror. This is a very good book
    for teenage boys because the characters are very
    creative and the authors leave a lot of clues for
    the reader to figure out by themselves. Young
    children should not read this book because of
    moderate violence and swearing.
