Blurb:
FEAR FIGHTS FURY…
when anthropologist Lee Barry is “invited” to upgrade her lecturing skills
at an alien facility. A few TV broadcasts by white-coated extraterrestrials,
and humans had embraced the alien invasion of Earth with open arms. Lee
wondered if she really was insane. The aliens couldn’t control the minds of
everyone else on the planet, could they?
Zhan, alien Director of the Arizona Adult Education Centre, also had
moments when he doubted his sanity. He’d taken this post because he knew his
government was wrong. Humans were too independent to forgive mind control,
despite all the wonders his people had bestowed upon them. But if they didn’t
vote for his people in the Intergalactic Federation elections, war would soak
the galaxies with innocent blood!
When Zhan and Lee meet, passion flames, legendary symbionts awaken, and
the truth is stranger and far more dangerous than anyone expected. Hunted by
resistance fighters, bloodthirsty priests, and rival empires, they must
persist. But can love born of cosmic destiny survive political betrayal, primal
instincts, and a war for the soul of humanity?
This isn’t just a love story. It’s a rebellion written in blood and memory –
a sizzling, high-stakes sci-fi romance with teeth!
My review:
An Alien Affair is an intelligent sci-fi fantasy that engages
mind and imagination. Part political thriller, part intellectual exercise and
part love story this book thoroughly engages the reader. I enjoyed this but was
occasionally thrown from the story by the authors continued use of an alien
language that required me to leave the story to decipher it. One of the
downsides of sci-fi I guess.
