Alien Log Book

Colonel Mitchell?s face paled as he looked into the briefcase the President had just opened before him. "Colonel, I believe that device you?re looking at is a key, not only to our national security but also, to the survival of humanity as we know it. You have carte blanche to assemble the best team you can to discover the alien secrets contained in there. Time is critical. To avoid world-wide panic, secrecy is of utmost importance. Do you understand?" Alien Log by Robert Farrell is on one level a moving story about a pair of scientists hired to decode a mysterious artifact found at a UFO crash site in 1953 in Arizona. On another level, it is an enlightening story, which posits the connection between current scientific knowledge and alien technology. In a secret base in Nevada, Colonel Mitchell aids the two scientists, Dr. Corey Newton, an astrophysicists, and Dr. Wendy Ahearn, a world renowned linguist, in their mission to decode the alien artifact. This artifact is not only the alien ship?s log but possibly a link to the mother ship?s computer. In this well researched book, Farrell does an excellent job of telling a story about how a super team races to decode an alien artifact before the aliens try to stop them. But more than telling a solid story, Farrell presents years of research on UFO theory easy-to-understand prose. In Alien Log, Farrell has proven himself to be not only a well-researched scientist, but a fine craftsman and writer who remains true not only to his argument, but to his characters and his love of the subject as well.Read More
