The Mecha Mission: Book 1: Intervention

Humanity’s days on earth are numbered far fewer than we ever thought. And the clock has been ticking since before our time.

After another workday as an ER janitor, Ricky Mapp is asked out to an impromptu dinner by the attractive Dr. Ester Salazar. But wherever that unlikely match may lead is preempted by the announcement of spacefaring machines hoping to make “new friends”.

The Mecha tell of a looming cosmic disaster that’ll doom earth to certain destruction. We must evacuate to survive.They will provide the necessary technology and guidance. But to relocate an entire civilization, radical change is inevitable, for better or worse.

Ricky and Ester perform their essential work as cogs in the machine maintaining order. However, after a long sci-fi fandom, he wants a closer look at ET IRL. But society frays under strain of first contact, as humans take measure of alien AI and themselves.
