Alien Ethic

by R. Richard

Aliens want to invade the home of 95-year-old Maddy, because Maddy is unknowingly harboring an alien criminal.
First the aliens send in a hired specialist, the tall man.
The tall man overcomes the defenses in Maddy's house and enables the aliens to extract the criminal alien.
The alien medical machines do what they can for the criminal alien and Maddy. The aliens depart.
Then comes the hard part of the tall man's job.

About the author

I have 48 novels and over 290 short stories currently published.

I'm the co-author, with Sunset Thomas, of Anatomy of An Adult Film.

I spent my early years in the part of Los Angeles known as the South Central. I was known as Whi' Boy, which was sufficient to indentify me in that place. I'm a skilled kung-fu player, using a system that I learned from a Korean I knew only as 'Pak.' It would be easier to tell you the places that Pak wasn't wanted by the police, rather than the places where he was wanted by the police. Pak's kung-fu system, augmented by some bits and pieces from some Chinese practicioners is quick and effective, or I wouldn't be alive today.

My early education was mostly obtained by stealing books from the public library (I always returned them and the Librarian even began to provide me with reading lists.) I did go to high schools, but I never really learned anything there. I eventually graduated from the University of California at Los Angeles, UCLA, with a degree in mathematics.

I work as a Systems Analyst and also make a part of my living as a professional gambler (legal in Nevada.)

I write science fiction, erotica and adventure. My published novels are:

Reviews

[R. Richard · Rating 5 out of 5]

The first book in the Tall Man series.
There are aliens who must operate under a very strict ethical code. However, things don't always work, under the aliens ethical code. When things don't work, the aliens send in the tall man.
The tall man is more of a pragmatist.
(Incidently, published on Mexican Independence Day.)

[Sandor · Rating 5 out of 5]

An interesting start to a scifi series.
Aliens have work that they may not do. Thus, they hire the tall man.
