"Blaine C. Readler is brilliant! He has combined humor, science fiction, drama, adventure,
and maybe a little horror all in one plot. The result is a great read . . . it is easy and
an honor to recommend The Alien Who Preferred Fish."
"While space aliens and their motives for invasion, retaliation, or communication are usually seen in the realm of science fiction, Readler takes these concepts and twists them until something bright, shiny, and weird is bestowed. . . Readler also has a true talent in dialogue, displaying subtle undertones of hope and fear . . . The Alien Who Preferred Fish gives a nod to the surreal while examining the depths of friendship and trust in this sweetly funny novel." "The Alien Who Preferred Fish has an imaginative plot that mixes the ordinary with the absurd, physics with science fiction. It's a combination that works because of a solidly grounded storyline with enough twists in the logic to keep it interesting. . . . Readler demonstrates an understanding and talent for the craft of writing. Monsters in The Attic is an entertaining read with a sense of whimsy that I found appealing. If you enjoy Douglas Adams and his speculative fiction comedic adventure titles, I would recommend that you give The Alien Who Preferred Fish a try." |

Space aliens have invaded the earth! Unfortunately nobody knows, at least until Gabe,
pet-sitter by day, and jump-blues bandleader by night, finds himself face-to-face with
a raccoon that talks in a voice like Louis Armstrong. The animal hosts an alien who's
named himself Ronald Reagan on the theory that this will elicit fond memories for Americans.
"Ronny" explains that a race of evil Demon-zombies are poised for a full-scale invasion,
and that he and his colleagues have come to earth to save mankind . . . but they need Gabe's
help. Unfortunately Gabe can't shake an uneasy feeling that Ronny is lying.
