    About this audiobook

    First Contact has never been easy.

    Despite the rumors, the US Government has been able to deny First Contact with an alien race for decades, but with good reason: it hasn't happened yet.

    When a strange signal comes from an isolated area in the forests outside of Seattle, they find that First Contact is not going to happen with big ships and grand world-wide messages. Aliens, it turns out, like to keep their existence quiet.

    Nick Logan, Seattle's resident alien, wants to tell his human wife the truth about himself. He just happened to land too close to a military base from his last trip. Now, telling her the truth has become way more complicated than he anticipated, stuck behind a glass wall and with the military between them.

    The Librarian is a contemporary short novel set in Washington State and dealing with first contact with an alien species unlike anything else in modern science fiction.

      I’m giving this a four because it was too short. This needs to be expanded out by about 10 hours more so the characters can be fully appreciated. Fantastic premise, it just needs more build up.

      A WONDERFUL AND UNIQUE TAKE ON FIRST CONTACT
      I'm a Space Opera Junkie and would have loved to be The Librarian! I boldly went into this book with no expectations or preconceptions and was surprised and delighted with it. Just what I needed to cheer up a rainy day, without taking a deep dive into something heavy.
      highly recommend this book and especially the audio version, as I listen to about 20 books a month, and am very picky about what gets on my monthly list.
      I hope she writes more SciFi, but in the meantime I'm diving into her paranormal series about Merfolk, starting with Underneath - A Merfolk Tale (The Under Series Book #1.
