Now Io, a perennial incompetent, has chosen Ella to make her play for greatness, but Ella has her own agenda. The aliens, who are immaterial and ride their human vessels, have instigated many of humans' greatest triumphs and horrors. The Prophus and the Genjix, two aspects of a stranded alien species, have secretly been guiding human evolution since the beginning and are now fighting a war intended to raise humans to the level where they can create the technological necessary to return the aliens to their home world. Following after The Rebirths of Tao, this novella carries on the fast-moving and fun tone of the series.This solid latest volume in Chu's Tao series shifts attention from the immortal alien Tao and his human vessel Cameron to a new pairing: another alien, the crabby, self-centered Io, and Indian street urchin Ella Patel. The Days of Tao is the latest in the popular Tao series from award-winning author, Wesley Chu. Cameron knows a good agent would leave them to fend for themselves. And the agent isn't the only person relying on Cameron to get them safely out of the country-his friends from the study abroad program are, too. The Prophus are relying on him to uncomplicate things.Įasy, except the rival Genjix have declared all-out war against the Prophus, which means Greece is about to be a very dangerous place.

Then the emergency notification comes in: a Prophus agent with vital information needs immediate extraction, and Cameron is the only agent on the ground, responsible for getting the other agent and data out of the country.

Instead of spending the summer after college completing his training as a Prophus operative, he's doing a study abroad program in Greece, enjoying a normal life-spending time with friends and getting teased about his crush on a classmate. Cameron Tan wouldn't have even been in Greece if he hadn't gotten a 'D' in Art History.
