2.5 stars

So, aliens have finally arrived, and for a change they are friendly, however because they look like blobs of snot and only communicate via smells, they first want to uplift their personas before making contact with humanity.

They decide to work on their public image with the help of a celebrity agency.

The author could have done a lot more with the idea behind the story, yet he settled for a fluff piece that focuses as much on the vapidness of being an agent to celebrities as it did on the juvenile humor.

I like this author, I have read many of his books and always enjoy his unique take on the sci fi genre yet this one lacked substance.

I did enjoy Will Wheaton’s narration of the audio version but ultimately the story lost steam for me after the ½ way mark and I found myself zoning out quite a few times while listening.

Holly Yeah "celebrity agent to aliens" is not a story I particularly want to read.
