Naida by Scott Overton



 Imagine if you not only saw an extraterrestrial being, but it became part of you. In Naida, the author poses that question in a realistic and thought-provoking manner. Discovered in a remote lake, Michael is both fascinated and terrified of what is now part of him. The two individuals must learn the ways of each other to survive and the fate of the human race hangs in the balance.

The story creates an intriguing suggestion that we might not be all that different to other species that might exist elsewhere in the universe. Friend or foe, destructor, or savior. Can humanity keep an open mind or will our own base character of violence and that of the imagination of Hollywood influence it?

This story was a fantastic page turner as we did deep into these complicated, yet normal feelings when we ask ourselves, “What is really out there?”
