Even later presidents were denied the truth about the Roswell incident, but under the directorship of Allen Dulles, the CIA determined the terrible purpose of the aliens' invasion by deciphering a reading device recovered from the crash site. Seventy years later they are coming back to finish the job and one woman is forced into the role of humanity's spokesperson because her uncle, who cracked the alien language, taught it to her as a child and now she is thrust into Alien Affairs.
Alien Affairs (Audible Audio Edition) Scott Skipper Heidi Allred Books
This fast-moving tale was one of the most entertaining stories I've read in a long time. Not only did I find numerous scenes laugh-out-loud hilarious, but it had enough suspense for me to stay up into the wee hours of the night to see how it ended.Ironically, one of the reasons I bought this book was because one of its reviewers gave it a poor rating simply because it was politically incorrect. And they were right, it certainly is. And therein was where I found most of the humor. The snarky, cynical comments were such an accurate reflection of the state of the world today that you either laugh or cry. I, for one, prefer to laugh.
The story begins with the Roswell incident back in 1947, with which any UFO nut like myself is duly familiar. The author did an excellent job of recounting the incident and blending those individuals mentioned in the historical record with fictitious characters. In fact, it's difficult to tell where the truth (which is undoubtedly out there) ends and speculation begins, placing this story within that popular sci-fi subgenre where fact mingles comfortably with supposition.
The dialog is convincing but includes quite a few f-bombs, so those who prefer less graphic language may want to look elsewhere. If you're a UFO fan you'll recognize numerous familiar stories and names which provide authenticity and credibility as they interact with Skipper's characters. Depictions of how the various government agencies would react to the situation's developments are believable, the characters diverse and engaging, the technology described sufficiently to satisfy hard sci-fi fans. The story would make an excellent mini-series with its outstanding balance of humor, suspense, and UFO lore, somewhat like a cross between The X-Files and Men in Black. I found it sci-fi at its best with any political incorrectness contributing to its authenticity. I'm actually glad that it's the first book in a series and look forward to reading the sequels.

Alien Affairs (Audible Audio Edition) Scott Skipper Heidi Allred Books Reviews
Alien Affairs was everything I wanted and more in a science fiction book. It had aliens, first contact and funny parts to keep it light.
Who never heard of Roswell? Mr. Scott Skipper weaved his story around it and made it so plausible; one might wonder if he actually had insight about the secrecy.
My favorite parts were the verbal exchanges between Carrie and Deshler. Some of these made me laugh out loud. Yet the one that bested them all is a reaction from one of Carrie's coworker who offered to go in the alien ship to be one of the humans tested for something. (I can't really say, it might be a spoiler.)
This is what he said when he came back to Earth “You didn’t tell me I was going to get an alien hand job.”
This is an image I don't think I will ever be able to get out of my head. But it will always leave me with a smile.
After the first chapter I nearly put this book down. I thought it was another Roswell, N.M. story, a story that has been done time ad nauseum. I'm glad I didn't. Yes, it starts out that way, but Mr. Skipper has untwisted and re-spun it to a point I could actually believe it was possible. The characters are great, the plot straight forward and very nicely twisted at the end.
In fact, just as I thought the story was about to end, it took in a whole new life. Humanity, it turns out, has a future, even after all its failures.
This book is filled with humor, suspense and sufficient techno-babble (based,I might add on reality) to satisfy purists in Sci/Fi. Some characters are irreverent SOB's, others are feckless, and some are . . . shall we say, bureaucrats--you know the type.
There are some typo's and repeated words which a good proofreader/editor should catch. Another round of editing would really sharpen an already great story. I'm not that much of a purist to let it distract me from the story or lessen the rating I gave it.
Highly recommended.
This wonderful book begins with an alien air craft, a flying saucer, crashing somewhere on an American ranch land.. Three of the crew were dead, one survived and was found holding an unknwon device that today would resemble a . The language on it was totally unknown. The governmenmt called in a linguist who spoke eight languages. He was able to decipher the words and their meaning because the device taught the holder how to understand it by showing pictures along with their meaning verbally. Only this one man could understand the alien text and he passed on his knowledge to his daughter before dieing, leaving her as the only person on earth to be able to understand their misión and to speak with them. The aliens claimed to have created mankind millions of years ago and now found it useless and planned to end our existence by attrition, spreading a gas that would eliminate all humans ability to procreate, theefore removing us without killing anyone, just letting us die off. The author fascinates in telling with details such as the Space Station with our and Russia's astronauts has 5 or 6 hookers aboard for obvious reasons, surely $5000 a night caliber.. He writes with such attention to military detail and with frequent sly humor that it is a book one literally cannot put down. And I didn't. Nor will you.I am very good at spending other people's money so I urge you to BUY THIS BOOK. I did and I congratulate myself on my good judgment.
