First congratulation on your book, I will defiantly check it out.
Now on to the meteors. We are surrounded by the asteroid belt. A lot of them fall on earth, but like you said, easily burn up in the sky. I don not now a percentage for sure, but I can provide you with some info. Yes, the bigger a meteor the less chance it will burn up and meet earth. But I want you to know that even if a big meteor burn up, it cold be bad news. It could burn up and explode in the sky, causing a similar effect like an atomic bomb
