Xul by A. G. Wilde Pdf

Athena wakes up in hell. Well...it's an alien slave ship, but it might as well be hell because she only has three choices. Mate. Become a sex slave. Or be killed. Great options. Desperate for freedom, a chance for survival is presented in the handsome rogue alien called Xul. But Xul is caught up in problems of his own and a mission he cannot afford to let fail--one that could be easily compromised if he dared open his heart. That doesn't leave her with many options and it doesn't help that she finds him utterly frustrating... ...and strong, hot, irresistible... She shouldn't really be thinking about him like that. Should she? Xul is a standalone read that contains delightfully steamy scenes with a guaranteed happily ever after, possessive alpha males, and strong female leads. There is no forced mating between the hero and heroine and no cliffhanger. It is the first book in the Captured by Aliens sci-fi alien romance series. Buy Xul today! A new galaxy awaits.

The Assessment by Adrian Rudnyk Pdf

1. What should we expect from an alien civilization if they were to arrive here on Earth?2. What would the relationship between humans and aliens be upon their arrival?"The Assessment" is an analysis of these two inherently philosophical questions. Unlike other ufological books, The Assessment" does not appeal to any UFO related data. Also the premise is that no matter what their psychological or cultural makeup might be, certain overarching behaviors and attitudes from a true interstellar civilization should be apparent. The Rudnyk Scale is introduced for assessing the possible nature of an alien civilization. While real life experiences with an interstellar civilization might turn out to be much more complex than we can envision, the author's hope is that "The Assessment" would, nevertheless, provide a constructive backdrop for future discussions or situations that deal with this topic.

The Alien Arrival by Aulus Vitell Pdf

It was a beautiful summer day, so I decided to ride my bike through the woods. After about an hour of riding my bike, I saw something strange in the distance. As I got closer, I could see that it was two people standing in the middle of the path. Both of them were tall and slim, with long, flowing hair and pretty faces. They looked like they were wearing white robes, and they had a strange light around them. I stopped riding my bike and looked at them in amazement. I didn't think what I was seeing was real. Neither of these two figures was human. They were from another planet. I used my phone to take a lot of pictures. I made sure to do it quietly so as not to get their attention. I also tried not to think too much about taking pictures because I knew they might be able to read my mind. I kept my attention on the conversation and tried to look as natural as possible as I talked to them. So, I could take pictures without getting caught, and I was glad when I was done. I had taken some really great pictures, and I couldn't wait to show them to everyone.

The Art and Science of Arrival by Tanya Lapointe Pdf

Official retrospective companion book to the Paramount film Arrival starring Amy Adams, Jereny Renner and Forest Whitaker, featuring concept art, sketches, behind-the-scenes photography and interviews with key creative and scientific team members. Since its release in 2016, Denis Villeneuve’s Arrival, based on the Hugo-nominated short story Story of Your Life by Ted Chiang, has embedded itself firmly in the minds of moviegoers around the world. The film garnered many accolades, including nine BAFTA nominations and eight Academy Award® nominations, proceeding to win an Oscar® for Best Sound Editing and a BAFTA for Best Sound. Since then, the film has generated larger conversations within the cultural landscape of academia including film, philosophy, and linguistics. In The Art and Science of Arrival, author and producer Tanya Lapointe revisits the film and its legacy with the production’s key team members. This lavish hardback volume recounts the genesis of this modern classic, from Ted Chiang’s short story The Story of Your Life to its premiere in Venice and its subsequent eight Academy Award(R) nominations. It explores the film’s concept of non-linear time, and showcases the remarkable concept art that brought the aliens, their ships and their startling logogram language to life.

Childhood's End by Arthur C. Clarke Pdf

In the Retro Hugo Award–nominated novel that inspired the Syfy miniseries, alien invaders bring peace to Earth—at a grave price: “A first-rate tour de force” (The New York Times). In the near future, enormous silver spaceships appear without warning over mankind’s largest cities. They belong to the Overlords, an alien race far superior to humanity in technological development. Their purpose is to dominate Earth. Their demands, however, are surprisingly benevolent: end war, poverty, and cruelty. Their presence, rather than signaling the end of humanity, ushers in a golden age . . . or so it seems. Without conflict, human culture and progress stagnate. As the years pass, it becomes clear that the Overlords have a hidden agenda for the evolution of the human race that may not be as benevolent as it seems. “Frighteningly logical, believable, and grimly prophetic . . . Clarke is a master.” —Los Angeles Times
