Xenogeneic: First Contact is a science
fiction thriller about first contact with an alien race that lost their civil
war and wants to take over Earth.
Dr. Elena Pyetrov’s father vanished in
space 18 years ago while searching for extraterrestrial life. As an aerospace
engineer, Elena travels into space to search for answers and to continue his
work. Her ship is pulled off course and crashes.
The alien Knoonk lost their civil war in a
distant star system and fled to Earth’s neighborhood to hide and regroup. They
fashion themselves as persecuted pilgrims in need of a new home—Earth. Unable
to live in Earth’s toxic environment, the aliens kidnap and use humans to
genetically modify their species to adapt.
Surviving the crash, Elena and her
shipmates are transported to a closed cave system where the Knoonk monitor and
control everything. Elena tries to make a connection with her hosts and find
ways to work together, but Knoonk leaders rebuff her and force the humans to
submit as slaves. The aliens use illusions, distractions, and social
experiments to learn from their hostages and keep them off balance. Resistance
by captive humans brings swift punishment to break the human spirit.
While Elena continues to look for ways to
cooperate with the Knoonk, the aliens want to capture Earth for their species.
With time running out, Elena must dig deep to uncover the alien plan and find a
way to stop them before the human race faces enslavement and extinction.
