The Visitor - hard, near-future science fiction for the listener who likes realism.

Specialist astronaut Evelyn Slater encounters a small, badly damaged, ancient alien artifact on the first ever space junk elimination mission.

Where was it from? Who sent it?

International governments impose a security clampdown. Evelyn leads a team of handpicked scientists who make amazing discoveries within the alien device. Secrecy becomes impossible to maintain. When the news is finally released, she becomes embroiled in international politics, worldwide xenophobic hatred, and violence.

This is the first book in the Tony Harmsworth’s First Contact series of novels. If you like realistic near-future stories which compel you to imagine yourself as the protagonist, The Visitor is the book for you. The Visitor is a science fiction for the "thinking" listener and with a wicked twist. Buy it now and be transported into orbit.

I really enjoyed the story which could easily have been a modern-day tale. External view on injustices of modern society. This book won't be enjoyed by the religious.

Excellent contemporary science fiction

Strong story with enjoyable conclusion, however narrators plumby English accent was grating and difficult to find some sort of affinity with. Science was pretty plausible and easy enough to follow. I would say it was more suitable for young teen audience than adult.

Good story
