MORE REVIEWS:
“That was fun sci-fi and it begs for a sequel. The story of a man who’s “shiny” and can therefore translate aliens seems too silly, but somehow it works and works well.” – James
“Excellent read, loved the story line when is the second book coming?” – BJ
“Really enjoyed this one. Strong, clear voice. Big concepts, hard science & plenty of interesting characters facing epic challenges. Original enough plot that it was never stale. Fun ride, adequate explosive quotient.” – Tygrr
“This is definitely a book making you want more. This is a book that fuses multiple genres well. Science Fiction is heavily present as it is a first contact story, but also features aspects of Politics, military, biology, paranormal, action/adventure and much more. Honestly it is terrifically fun, great characters and story, cannot wait for more from Claire. Russians and their squirrels. So crafty.” – John D.
“A fabulously interesting and darkly humorous take on first contact. l really enjoyed it.” – pj17
“I like the animal attracting capabilities and light communications.” – Valerie S
“A fresh take on first contact and alien thinking. Creative, funny, fun, engaging. More please!” – cybersquid
“I quite enjoyed this story. I found it quirky in a good and intriguing way. I liked how the different perspectives were written into the story. I definitely want to read more. There is more, yes?” – Janine K.
“Great book. Very funny. Great characters. Love the aliens and typical humans trying to get rid of them.” – Dennis Richard
“Wonderfully imaginative novel the author created a perfect first contact scenario where the antagonists were already here a respect for science and scientists was apparent not so much for politicians!” – Excellent read!
“Not being familiar with the author, I had not expected this book to hold my interest the way it did. The author seems to have a great understanding of how both scientists and the military would react to first contact and their grudging interactions. I look forward to a sequel. Now I have to go out back and talk to my squirrels.” – DG
“Really pleasant to read such an interesting idea. Entertaining and thoughtful at the same time. I hope the author can find time to add a sequel. The tory wonderfully shows that the block bully ( guess who, America ) is not always right or triumphant. Do, please, write on.” – Don Hines
“The Rosetta Man is an unexpectedly quirky first-encounter story with a lot of imagination, character, and humor.” – Pamela Haswell
“Not a talking animal book! Wonderful fantasy adventure that explores alien contact in a refreshing way without surrendering to cataclysmic global destruction. McCague expertly weaves multiple story lines into one coherent focal point through elements of culture, science, military and the political intertwined with the struggles of everyday human relationships to present a first contact story like no other.” – Terry Cobban
“The Rosetta Man is truly engaging to read. One can’t help but not keep reading once they start. Estlin is a great main character who knows his own mind even when put against quack doctors and angry young girls. A situation that is really great to read.” – Dionne Washington
“The cover and synopsis had me expecting a light-hearted comedy. I didn’t realize I was getting a geopolitical first contact thriller that somehow still managed to be a light-hearted comedy. I really enjoyed this book! The characters are rich and diverse. Estlin and Harry are great, Beth and Bomani made me cry. The story is fast paced and engaging and again, completely unexpected.” – Scott Burtness
“I enjoyed this novel and all the various international characters that cross paths with Hume and the ETs. I rate it a 7/10 on my personal scale.” – TrUzApalOOza, amazon
“Claire McCague has a great style and sense of humour. Her ideas are fresh and interesting. The Rosetta Man pulls you in from the start.” – Vee, amazon
“A completely enjoyable read. Good action, lots of humor, and a global setting. Strongly recommended.” – Diane Lacey
