Publisher's Summary

Aliens exist, the government knows, and Dan McCarthy just found the proof. When Dan McCarthy stumbles upon a folder containing evidence of the conspiracy to end all conspiracies - a top-level alien cover-up - he leaks the files without a second thought. The incredible truth revealed by Dan's leak immediately captures the public's imagination, but Dan's relentless commitment to exposing the cover-up and forcing disclosure quickly earns him some enemies in high places. For his whole life, Dan McCarthy has searched for a reason to believe. Now that he finally has one, he might soon wish he didn't.... Not Alone is a stand-alone tale of contact and disclosure for the 21st century.

Not Alone

A very engrossing story. The characters are well defined and easily understandable. The narrator was excellent.

Ok story but not what I thought it would be.

This is an interesting book however if you are experiencing an alien invasion story don’t hold your breath. The book mostly reveals how the media will react when faced with the evidence of extra terrestrials. The book is interesting and the narration is very good. Unfortunately despite the story being ok, the characters are all pretty one dimensional. Bad guys are bad good guys are good and there’s no grey area. This is kind of distracting and keeps me from believing or caring about any of the characters.

Wow! What a wonderful surprise

Not a fan of sci-fi, but I loved this book. Of course you have to be open-minded but this story tries to address any questions you might have before you have them. It's written for any reader not just the sci-fi enthusiast...so I could enjoy the story without having to rewind to figure out what was said. I was quickly hooked and looked forward to rush hour traffic just so I could continue listening. Book 2 is already in my cart.

Entertaining

#Audible1

This book was enjoyable and the narration was on point. Suspenseful and comedic. The story lags in some places with excessive dialogue.

Two books in one

This story could be a 12 part series on Netflix in the Stranger Things arena.
I did enjoy it, but as a single listen it was too long and needed better editing and let's say cropping. Although it provided plenty of food for thought, I felt I was being way over fed. Not sure if I will tackle Season 2 in the next book as I am very full.

Aliens

This book is about aliens. Duh. No but really it's a political intrigue that follows how the world reacts TO aliens.
Ok, now for spoilers. The alien's voice was magnificent and the double flop from truth to hoax to truth was nothing if not unexpected. The only problem I had was that the aliens didn't seem all that alien, more like alt-human. It felt like they thought in the same manner as humans. I can't help but feel like it was an opportunity wasted whereas a movie like arrival makes full use of their aliens.
All in all worth a listen.
