NOTES

Years after her mother cajoled the secret to reversing the effects of alien induced global infertility from the libidinous alien, Deshler, the birth rate begins to rebound when another alien craft arrives on a follow-up visit. Terrie Deshler desperately tries to be a normal teenager while threatened by jihadists, hounded by the government, pursued by Russians and menaced by fertility probing aliens. Being only one of a handful who can communicate with the no nonsense alien, Mischa, she and her mother apply their wiles to convince the suspicious invaders that their plan for human extinction is on track. The fact that her aunt is secretly dispensing the fertility restoration cure to an elite few brings the wrath of the masses down on them all while the space raiders circle the planet searching for evidence of reproduction. Scott Skipper is a California fiction writer with a broad range of interests, including history, genealogy, travel, science and current events. His wry outlook on life infects his novels with biting sarcasm. Prisoners are never taken. Political correctness is taboo. His work includes historical fiction, alternative history, novelized biography, science fiction and political satire. He is a voracious reader and habitual and highly opinionated reviewer. An alien reading device recovered from the Roswell crash site reveals a terrible secret about mankind. Years later one woman is the only person who can negotiate with the aliens for the sake of humanity. Carrie Player gives her all to save the species, but she not only has to match wits with an alien, she must suffer with inept presidents, terrorists, a megalomaniacal CIA director, wiseass subordinates, bipolar spies and a mysterious child. When the human race stops reproducing, she is the only person who can find a cure, but it seems like everyone is trying to stop her? Will she survive to see the species recover? What will future generations look like if there are future generations? While we struggle to prevent our extinction how can we thwart the extremists' plans for world domination? Will we ever elect competent leaders again? Fast paced and sardonic, the Alien Affairs series sets one of a kind characters against perils both homegrown and otherworldly
