Many of us look up into the wondrous night sky and know that we are looking at a galaxy full of life. It doesn’t matter that we haven’t discovered definitive proof of it yet – we know it’s out there and, perhaps, looking back at us, wondering the same thing in return.
The stories in this anthology explore myriad ideas of what ‘extra-terrestrial’ could mean. Not only to humanity, but to individuals.
You will read stories of invasion, stories of loss and discovery, stories of trickery and subjugation, and so much more. This anthology throws the doors wide open, and all you need do is step through...
As the editor of this anthology, I am extremely proud of all the writers, as well as their tales. :) I hope you'll read this, and I hope you'll enjoy it. :)
Aliens: They are out there, and according to the title of this anthology from Tickety Boo Press, they are coming.
Perhaps unsurprisingly this is a Science Fiction Collection featuring a number of different writers, some well known, some not so. The simple remit was to tell a story about aliens, but from different perspectives, and the result was a wealth of stories, that read from pulp fiction to thought provoking pieces, to action adventure to slow boilers. There are tales where the aliens are coming here top Earth, others where explorers from Earth are the aliens. Stories on an individual level through to those on an epic level, and all of them are entertaining well written pieces, something that is not only a reflection on the various authors, but on the production and editorial values of this publisher. (With the possible exception of the final story).
It is hard to mention stories individually, as it seems neglectful not to mention the others, so with that in mind, I'll recommend this book by saying it is a collection of radically differing pieces, an example of diversity and originality, something that is well worth a read for any SF fan, or with a [passing interest in what might be out there in the vast eternity of space.
