This review is from: DAY OF DESCENT (ALIEN NATION 1) (Paperback)
If you are a fan of the show this book is totally worth the time it might take to find it. It explains EVERYTHING that happened in the years before the ship landed and lets you see more about why the characters are the way they are. I definately recommened this book, I couldn't put it down.

Pleasant Surprise,
By Evan the Dweezil (A Place-Sort Of, Montana) - See all my reviews
This review is from: DAY OF DESCENT (ALIEN NATION 1) (Paperback)
It's been my experience that "Pro Fic" isn't exceptionally well written. However, Day of Descent proves the stereotype wrong. Set in the minutes/hours just following the show cliffhanger "Green Eyes" this book details how the Teconese actually crash landed in the Mojave. It gives a lot of detail about George and his family while exploring slavery. We get to meet rookie detective Matt Sikes and see how he's initially drawn into the plight of the Newcomers.
The continuity was spot on. The writing was crisp and entertaining. This is an absolutely fabulous additon to the Alien Nation universe.
