Since the dawn of human curiosity, we have looked to the stars and asked a single question: are we alone? That relentless need to know has driven us to send signals, messages, and artifacts into the cosmos, hoping that something, somewhere, might answer. Stories of First Contact is a collection of twenty-four imagined encounters between humanity and extraterrestrial intelligence.
At the center of them all stands Arthur McMillan, a thin, disheveled, asocial genius - but then, are there any other kind - who repeatedly finds himself at the heart of first contact. Will contact bring the end of civilization, chaos and destruction beyond imagination? Or the beginning of a golden age, filled with progress, discovery, and a deeper understanding of the universe? Through Arthur's eyes, discover what awaits us when we finally meet the unknown.
