review 1: I enjoyed Kethani but it is really a book of short stories not a novel. The author created short pieces to link all the stories together. Also the book does not really deal with the aliens themselves. Rather it deals more with the psychological aspects of an alien race coming to earth bearing gifts and how humanity responds to them. While I did enjoy many of the stories and ideas presented I was hoping for space opera not space drama.
review 2: I was excited for this book and it was a letdown. It was about what happened to normal people's lives when the world was finally contacted by aliens and given the opportunity to choose to live forever. The stories were bland and many of them dealt with the same old theme of divorce and people who chose not to live fore... morever. Virtually nothing about the aliens themselves and absolutely void of any stories about actual contact between humans and aliens. less
