First Contact: Digital Science Fiction Anthology 1, is a book full of mind-blowing short stories that will reel you in from page one. First Contact Anthology 1 is the very first installment of a monthly rendition of anthologies. First Contact is made up of ten fictitious short stories written by a number of authors from various parts of the world. Partners Stephen Helleiner and Craig Ham come together with Editor Jessi Hoffman to choose stories that allow the human mind to run wild within the pages of this book. All of the stories feature an easy-to-follow conversational style that grabs the attention of readers, leaving them on the edges of their seats. Each story has its own unique effect, evoking from the reader a full array of emotions. Just when the reader thinks he/she has the story figured out, he/she is left breathless with suspense as the plot changes in an instant. First Contact contains everything readers look for in a great series; suspense, laughs, romance, drama, and terror- all bound in one book.
"How I Lost Eleven Stones and Found Love," by Ian Creasey is the first story in the book. The engaging tale of a boy and girl, and of course, an alien—it's truly everything you would expect in the story of an alien encounter. This one absolutely leaves you wondering about the possibility of such an encounter with life beyond Earth.
From horror to mystery and everything in between, these stories engage the reader with themes that resonate and plots that thoroughly entertain. For example, the thrilling suspense of “Biting a Dead Man's Hand,” or a nice, quiet story like “The Caretaker,” it’s easy to see that the team did a phenomenal job creating the desire to turn the page for more.
If you're looking for a book that keeps your attention riveted from cover to cover, First Contact: Digital Science Fiction Anthology 1 is definitely for you!
