There are many misunderstandings, but they begin to trust each other. The Alien appreciates the heroines ease and understanding so much that he asks her to be the Ambassador, or go between, for the two parties. The author did a great job distinguishing aliens from human. From their touch, to the way they communicate, and heal from wounds. Right away, they are learning about each others differences. No bullets go flying, when it could have easily been really bad, and she proves her worth by asking the Aliens if she could help with his wound. I just remember thinking if this starts an international incident, I'm not reading any further. The doctor "white girl trips" into his arms.
After the first part of negotiations has ended between the two factions, the Alien gets up to return to his ship. It's a reluctant partnership.Įnter our heroine, she's a doctor, that's called when they notice head Alien is wounded. The Aliens don't trust the humans and vice versa. Landing our aliens on Earth with no choice, but to seek out help from the humans. It turns out there ship was damaged beyond repair during a fight with another alien race.
Her and a few commanders are tasked with meeting with the aliens and assessing if they come in peace or war. Our heroine is a doctor with the military.
It's pretty much the premise of the entire story. Humanity has finally had contact with extraterrestrial life forms and they need help. It also helped me visually one of the main characters better. It is an illustration and normally my mind says, just say no, but I surprisingly like this. But the more he learns of humans, the more he comes to admire and respect them. Earth's proposal is shocking and uncomfortable for a fierce, independent race that relishes in its solitude. When it affords them an unforeseen and unprecedented opportunity to take back their world from those who seek to destroy them, however, Aderus begins to wonder if it wasn't fate. Forced to interact with an isolated world and its inferior, albeit curious people.
But they never thought their flight for freedom would put them in an uncharted system. But all that changes one morning, and suddenly she's not so sure she didn't stick her foot in it.Įscape had been their only drive, and even death was preferable to the alternative. That's what it took to run a ship the size of a small city smoothly. Who wouldn't? She was still happy with her career, however mundane and demanding it might be. Sure, she had always dreamed of interacting with intelligent extraterrestrial life- the real thing, not those microbes on distant moons. Such is the life of an emergency medicine specialist in the age of "post-discovery". Victoria's day starts out like any other aboard the transorbital ship, Phoenix.
