Does this story grab and hold your attention? Not so much, definitely not a page turner. But, that’s not to say it isn’t a fun and interesting tale. Do alien abductions happen? I couldn’t really say, there are stories but not evidence. Still, they make interesting reading! This tale takes a standard abduction story to a new detailed level. It’s fun, Mr. Booker is a likable character, and the aliens are well developed and intriguing.

Grab a copy for yourself! It might not be a riveting story, but it’s fun! ( )

Being the voracious book reviewer, I am, I wanted to read something totally different from the stuff I’ve been reading/reviewing recently and eventually came upon this book by Mark Lages.

What had intrigued me about the about the storyline and characters in the book’s description. Prior to becoming a book reviewer, I’ve read about two books regarding the alien abduction and ultimate safe return of an earthling, so this book began to whet my interest in the book.

But, it had been the fact that the abductee is a history teacher which wound up having me purchasing a copy of this book; the reason being that back in high school I loved history, and been an A+ student in this subject through my entire time there.

Given these aliens from the planet Og were here, as most aliens are, to scrutinize us to decide what to do to us. When the time comes to interrogate someone from our planet, they’d randomly selected Mr. Booker who was about to begin his vacation, to bring him before their council on the spacecraft.

Given the probing type of questions these aliens had for Mr. Booker, I don’t feel any other profession other than his, would have been able to pull it off in the manner he did.

Mr. Lages writing style is rather complex, one moment it’s quite thought provoking and engaging, and the next it’s humorous and entertaining, a combination which kept me turning the pages.

When you believe the story has ended, it doesn’t as it becomes a discussion regarding the writing of the book and about the author in the book who wrote the story you’ve just read; giving a further insight to it.

For having given his readers an enthralling, humorous, sci-fi, alien abduction story, I’ve given this book and its author 5 STARS. ( )
