Description
Xenophobia is set in Malawi, Africa, where US soldiers act as peacekeepers to prevent a civil war from erupting. When an alien spacecraft arrives in orbit, America's response is thrown into turmoil, and US troops are withdrawn from hotspots around the globe to provide support at home. As a result, Malawi descends into chaos. A band of US Rangers stays behind to rescue doctors and patients from a field hospital, but hundreds of alien spacecraft soon begin flying overhead, changing the dynamics of war forever. This novel explores how humanity might initially respond to contact with aliens, examining the social, political, religious, and scientific aspects of First Contact.
