The Escapers

Book one of the young adult sci-fi adventure series.
All fourteen-year-old Bryce Doubleday wants is to be safe from the Imjac, the alien invaders who conquered Earth and killed his parents. But when he and his cousin are captured by the aliens and taken to an island prison camp, he knows he must fight for his life.
Forced to mine for the ruthless aliens, Bryce makes two key discoveries: he has an unnatural skill with alien technology, and the tunnels of the mine hold a substance toxic to the Imjac. Even with these realizations, freedom seems an impossible dream. Alien guards constantly monitor the prisoners' movements, and, worse, the island sits hundreds of miles from the mainland.
But when Bryce learns of a hidden danger, the choice becomes clear: escape or die.
Fans of The Maze Runner and Nyxia won't want to miss this YA sci-fi adventure.
