I just finished reading "Alien Child" by author Mona Lee, and wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed this book! It was so well written that the words effortlessly eased themselves off the page and into my heart and imagination.

With an easy to follow story line and deliciously decriptive characters and scenery, the author awakens the texture, personality and emotional depth within the reader. We are taken on a journey through and beyond a seemingly "normal" experience. The impossible becomes possible, and "Alien Child" becomes personally realistic and absorbing even though the book is labeled "science fiction" and "fantasy".

The concept of blending science-fiction and fantasy into the realities of global political structures is a highly effective strategy. Ms. Lee successfully introduces new ways of thinking and positive role models to a growing audience hungry for peaceful solutions to human sufferings. She stretches our belief systems and expands the concept of unlimited human potential within everyday people and events.

Another fine quality of this book is the physical presentation and layout. Separations by chapter and date enhance the storyline and development, and the centered, even margins are easy on the eye.

Many people continue to work toward healthy globalization, United Nations reform, and the establishiment of enforceable laws and justice through the International Criminal Court (ICC). I commend Ms. Mona Lee for her creative presentation of these innovative ideas, and will encourage my friends and colleagues to read her fascinating and engrossing novel.

Thank you for making this book available on amazon.com

Innocence and intrigue, love and fear, war and peace -- the themes are eternal. But an other-worldly perspective suggests a new and hopeful vision. This is the apocalypse in reverse. Be prepared for a page turner that inspires. From the lonely self-doubts and confusions of a young girl to the emergence of a global consciousness for peace and justice. To paraphrase Daniel Berrigan, "we must dream of things we never expect to see". This is that dream. It is our faith, our gift, for the generations to come.

This book is hard to put down - the plot turns in unsuspected ways, the characters are intriguing and unpredictable with a hint of mystery. Ms. Lee's prose is excellent - colorful, yet direct. This is fiction with enough hints of reality to make you want to believe it could happen.

This book is engulfing! I'm so happy each night when I fall asleep reading such wonderfully descriptive text! The main character is enchantingly beautiful, in a most spiritual way. The insightful remarks about the structure of our society and what it means to be human make this book worthy of my highest regards.

Wella's mission to Earth to mate turns into an astounding adventure, a study of human relationships as well as a lesson in love for a child's sake that we would do well to heed.
