We Have Met the Enemy hearkens back to the classic science fiction of Asimov, Clarke, and Herbert, but with the richly developed characters of a Roddenberry-esque story.
In the 31st century, Naiche Decker has been fighting in Earth’s war against an enigmatic and powerful alien enemy for six grueling years. Weary of losing battles and friends, she joins a deep space mission in a desperate search for the origins of the aliens - information vital to defeating them and saving the human race. On the voyage Decker is forced to confront not only the looming alien threat but her wary comrades and her own impetuous nature.
5.0 out of 5 stars Odyssey of the Soul Set Against the Stars (Reviewed in the United States on September 17, 2023)
"We Have Met the Enemy" is a gripping tale that does more than just entertain; it provokes thought. Felicia Watson strikes a harmonious chord between classic sci-fi elements and complex characters. Naiche Decker, the protagonist, evolves splendidly, questioning the very concept of revenge that initially fuels her journey.
The story skillfully explores ethical dimensions, going beyond mere space battles to delve into the psychological consequences of revenge and mercy. Expect to be surprised; this is not just another space saga but a layered narrative that transcends the genre. Worth every minute spent reading.
