A forthcoming novel by Wesley K. Alexander
The Smallest Ambassador
“The ice remembers what lungs forget.”
A first-contact science fiction adventure about pattern recognition, witness, courage, curiosity, Antarctica, and what we owe the ones we overlook.
About the book
When an alien vessel enters Earth's orbit and refuses to communicate with any world government, it sends a single signal: a request for the smallest among us.
A young female penguin did not ask to become the first ambassador to step aboard an alien ship. But the universe has been waiting for someone exactly like her.
