Alien contact sci-fi. Independence Day but friendly. With a twist. Humanoid aliens who speak English and have faces not super my cup of tea.
I'm sorry but I am unable to accept or tolerate tales that feature biological humanoid aliens who speak English and have faces and etc. I cannot concentrate on anything else in the plot, it is drowned out by the persistent screech of rage in the brain. A whole cast of characters come and go and become relevant and then irrelevant. If you like The Independence Day but wish the aliens were friendly little best buddies forever you will like this book. Sorry I'm being too mean but it just didn't resonate. 2/5
