Synopsis

\x26#34;An original, engaging, wonderfully complex alien world. Very highly recommended.\x26#34;
\-\-Julie E. Czerneda, author of the Web Shifter\x27s Library series<\/b> Set on a near\-future Earth and on the alien homeworld of S\x27hudon, Rick Wilber\x27s Alien Day<\/i> explores murderous sibling rivalries, old\-school mercantile colonialism, ambition, greed, and the saving strength that can emerge from reluctant heroes called to do the right thing despite the odds. <\/b> Will Peter Holman rescue his sister Kait, or will she be the one to rescue him? Will Chloe Cary revive her acting career with the help of the princeling Treble, or will the insurgents take both their lives? Will Whistle or Twoclicks wind up in charge of Earth, and how will the Mother, who runs all of S\x27hudon, choose between them? And the most important question of all: who are the Old Ones that left all that technology behind for the S\x27hudonni . . . and what if they come back? \x26#34;His Intricate and ingenious storytelling will pull you in, and then the humanity and vulnerability of his characters will break your heart.\x26#34; \-\-Alan Smale<\/b>, Sidewise award\-winning author of the Clash of Eagles trilogy<\/p>
