The Alien's Reward
Author: Jim Ricca
Publisher: Jim Ricca
ISBN:
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 598
Book Description
Do you think UFOs and ETs only make their presence known to that class of beer swilling, pick-up truck driving people of questionable intelligence and veracity that mainly reside below the Mason-Dixon Line? A highly educated engineer, who believed only in what he could hold, measure and quantify, thought just that until one fateful morning when he decided to aide a few strangers who came knocking at his door. If you’ve been searching for a truly engaging science fiction story written for non-nerds, that foregoes the weird religions, strange, unpronounceable languages and endless lines of meaningless techno-babble, then hop aboard for a down to earth, but highly exciting, exceptionally humorous and fast moving adventure with The Aliens Reward. This is one story where the visitors from space are just as crazy as any humans, and aren’t portrayed as invincible, all-knowing demi-gods, grotesque monsters or beings with supernatural powers. And, you’ll discover that they don’t have all the answers, although they do have plenty of questions, and present some unique problems, along with incredible acts of heroism, loyalty and courage. Discover how one non-believing man’s decision changes not only his world, but the fate of our entire planet, forever…

Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 324
Book Description
Ukiah Oregon is quickly becoming one of the greatest trackers in the country. Some call it luck—those closest to him call it instinct. Abandoned as a child, he was found running with a wolf pack. Now, in his job as a private investigator, he puts his nose to the ground to track down missing persons and fugitives from the law. A heightened sense of smell and taste—plus a photographic memory—make him an invaluable asset to his partner. But when Ukiah kills a crazed young woman in self-defense, he draws the attention of the FBI’s most wanted: a violent and elusive gang known as the Pack. And it won’t be long before Ukiah discovers just how much he has in common with the Pack: a bond of brotherhood, blood...and destiny.

The Aliens Are Here
Author: Fraser A. Sherman
Publisher: McFarland
ISBN: 1476685045
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 252
Book Description
Aliens: They have taken the form of immigrants, invaders, lovers, heroes, cute creatures that want our candy or monsters that want our flesh. For more than a century, movies and television shows have speculated about the form and motives of alien life forms. Movies first dipped their toe into the genre in the 1940s with Superman cartoons and the big screen's first story of alien invasion (1945's The Purple Monster Strikes). More aliens landed in the 1950s science fiction movie boom, followed by more television appearances (The Invaders, My Favorite Martian) in the 1960s. Extraterrestrials have been on-screen mainstays ever since. This book examines various types of the on-screen alien visitor story, featuring a liberal array of alien types, designs and motives. Each chapter spotlights a specific film or TV series, offering comparative analyses and detailing the tropes, themes and cliches and how they have evolved over time. Highlighted subjects include Eternals, War of the Worlds, The X-Files, John Carpenter's The Thing and Attack of the 50-Foot Woman.
