Alien Hostiles Audiobook Summary

New York Times bestselling author Ian Douglas delivers the action-packed second military sci-fi adventure in his Solar Warden series set in a wildly imaginative alternate present where conspiracy theories are terrifying realities and reptilian aliens team up with Nazis in space.

By exposing the sinister Saurians, Navy SEAL Lieutenant Commander Mark Hunter and his team have more than proven themselves. Yet the war between humanity and the intergalactic aliens has only begun–now they must save themselves and all of civilization.

The JSST–the Joint Space Strike Team Hunter has put together from all branches of the U.S. military–is again deployed on board the Earth starcraft carrier Hillenkoetter on a mission to probe a possible historical connection between the Saurians and the Nazi Third Reich. At a planet called Paradies orbiting the red giant star Aldebaran, they discover a long-rumored colony of expatriate Nazis… and the beginnings of a plan to enslave Earth under Nazi–and Saurian–rule.

With Earth at stake, governments deeply compromised, and evil at the door, Solar Warden must fight together to end it all…even if it means sacrificing everything.

I was recently provided with an ARC of Ian Douglas' "Solar Warrant: Alien Hostiles," which is the second volume of a new series known overall as the "Solar Warrant" series. The series is being published under the Harper Voyager imprint (who graciously provided me with the ARC). When I did my preliminary perusal of the text upon receipt from the publisher, I was so impressed by what appeared to be a significant departure from the author's canon, that I immediately purchased volume 1 of the series so that I had the background to deal fairly with the ARC. I am glad that I did although I believe either volume could be read and understood in isolation; the topic is so off the wall that I strongly recommend buying both volumes. The premise ties together Nazi mysticism, alien intervention in human affairs, time travel on a grand scale and government coverups of enormous proportions. Not the least of these coverups being the creation of a secret interstellar fleet of time traveling, space faring fighter craft battlegroups built around the equivalent to earth fleet level aircraft carriers. The author's skill and formidable experience in the genre of science fiction made it possible for this reader to willingly suspend my inherently skeptical nature and simply enjoy the truly wild ride on offer. There is a lot of information, speculation and conspiracy theory here to unpack, and if you are one of those who enjoys this sort of thing, this series is truly a delight. For those of you already familiar with the author's work (I am one), I encourage you to give it a try. I have read many of Douglas other works and found this series much more enjoyable. It was as if the author had decided to just let go and have some fun with some truly spectacular conspiracy theories and historical anomalies without getting lost in hard science. I strongly recommend it, but keep an open mind!

Alien Hostiles: Solar Warden Book Two by Ian DouglasThis is second book of a series. Mark Hunter, a Navy SEAL, finds himself directing a mixed band of special ops troops. Said troops are to provide security for a starship. The ship travels through both space and time. Earth is being manipulated by aliens but primarily our own ancestors and our reptilian predecessors. The manipulation is intended to guarantee the existence of the manipulators. Confused yet?Hunter’s ethics are at odds with the chain of command that seeks to appease the groups by ignoring human exploitation and suffering. The plot centers on a trip to a distant planet that is the home of space faring Nazis. The book explains the plausibility of such a ludicrous notion. Space travel and time travel are adroitly merged by Douglas. Overall, the book was very good and I look forward to the next volume.As an aside, considering the number of potentially inhabitable planets in just our galaxy, it is the height of arrogance to assume we are the only intelligent (often questionable) life to be found.

I am grateful to Harper Fiction [HarperVoyager] for the advanced reader copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.It has been some time since I last read science fiction, and I thoroughly enjoyed Alien Hostiles. Of course, it might have helped had I previously read Book One in the series, but that did not detract from my enjoyment.The story moves smoothly from a historical – World War Two and the Nazis – to an imaginative present-day setting, introducing numerous characters, sub-plots, and extra-terrestrial beings, some benign and others plotting the downfall of the human race.Ian Douglas [William H Keith] certainly knows his science, and he weaves a brilliant story full of action and highly-plausible themes. I also liked the quotations at the start of each chapter, and they do make you wonder – is there fire where there is smoke?

Second excellent bookGreat blend of UFO history and Science fiction. Bounced between Wikipedia and the story learning about the real people in the story. Mr Douglas always has a fact base fun story that always teaches something while reading your Science Fiction. Looking forward to the next book in the series.

Recent Reads: Solar Warden - Alien Hostiles. The 2nd book in Ian Douglas' latest series pits modern humans versus time-travelling dinosaurs in a UFO-infused milSF thriller ripped from the pages of Nature: SEALs vs actual Nazis on a moon in the Aldebaran system. A ripping yarn.

Lots of techy, geeky stuff to make it interesting. Good world building. Actual incidents in the story often have an improbable nature about them. I guess there is a sequel coming.
