Synopsis
In these stories Rebecca Ore explores the question of what it means to be alien: the unknown equation, the mysterious that can never be taken for granted, never be seen as "ordinary." She confronts us with visions of what it might mean to be the alien--the alien from outside and the alien within. The journey takes the reader to the heart of our oldest fears: from the terror of first contact to the power of the unknown, the very nature of intelligence to the exploration of what it means to be alive. And what we think of as most human might be the most alien of all.
