I am a little picky when it comes to science fiction and tired of the routine, formulaic space opera-type stories a long time ago.Being a cat lover and rescuer, I have to give extra credit to any author who can incorporate cats into their story without sounding contrived.I received this book free in exchange for an honest review, but I am fairly certain I downloaded it when it was offered free (like it is now.)"Trixie and Me" was a thoroughly-entertaining story that ended up being a quick read. So quick that I finished it and started reading another book the same day and forgot to write the review! In fact, I forgot all about this book until months later when I was looking for something relatively short to read while laid up after surgery. I was well into it when I realized I had already read the book.But you know what? I went on and read it again, and I think I enjoyed it even more.The imagery is incredible and I was able to picture the aliens quite well and I could see the design of the ship clearly.Peter Cawdron is a great author and I will be reading more of his work for sure.The more mature and experienced readers will see the "twist" coming long before the end but will still smile like I did when it is revealed.I highly recommend this for pretty much anyone who enjoys a good sci-fi yarn.
