Particular Tales of Extraterrestrial Zoom-Zooms

Popular belief amongst those who have crossed paths with this humble yet frizzy-haired critic indicates that I am not exactly a product of an entirely Earthian enterprise. Wherever I was found, and whomever found me, was it a going most bold? How in the names of heckfire and spandex does my enigmatic origin relate to this compilation. Heyyyyyyy....depending on the fella or gal who has an opinion, the outerspace-oids are my kinda wackybells! "The UFO Files" was a pleasant zephyr of a diversion to a week that has been hectic, a deluge of missed memos gone ka-fizzle and business transactions ending in the berzerko file due to the various imperfections and inconsistencies in the average homo sapien's work habits. BUT WAIT, THERE IS A BOOK ABOUT WHICH TO BE TALKED HERE!! Oh, yeah...Some great tales: "Ordinary Aliens"--They came from another galaxy to tell us how to pray! A mirthful romp with a potent punchline! "Emma Baxter's Boy"--Whatchoo got in that there basement? Lemme take a looky-see..OH MY GOD IT'S A HUNGRY CRITTER..*CRUNCH*...Not much room to roam for a topic that's been addressed previously, but also not a bad story! "Amid the Walking Wounded"--A man with a massive nosebleed. What is the correllation between the endless flow of crimson from the nasal cavity and the odd dark shapes that lurk in his peripheral vision?? Tightly told and avoids a clearly-defined explanation so the reader can draw his/her conclusions with a smirk! "Daddy Dearest"--This is the queer cat of the collection because the plot involves a deceased daddy's ashes conversatin' like he was still amongst the living, tormenting his offspring, resulting in the rolls of the eyes and the exhausted sighs...but where do the aliens go? This story isn't parallel to anything else in the book but who cares? It's funny! The aforementioned tales are the elite; the remainder are all noteworthy. The reason for a 4-star rating rather than a 5-star rating is that the book isn't sufficiently malevolent. I mean to state that not all aliens that wander into rural Idaho or downtown Chicago or the Hot Topic in the Mall of America are saying "Oops, I dropped something" or "Just looking, thanks, no intent to buy..or swipe...or kidnap. Got a food court?"

Really Great

This book gave fresh stories of strange happenings. I really think that this is an excellent book.
