Alien Autopsy Barbecue

About the Book

Two Bizarro Sci-Fi stories:

"Alien Autopsy Barbecue" You know how it is: one thing leads to another. A UFO crashes. The bodies of dead aliens are recovered by a black ops contractor. The next day, there's strange meat cooking at the company barbecue. Steve, an outsider, makes the mistake of crashing the party and gets himself in a jam when he's outed as an uninvited freeloader.

"Words That Hurt." Jack, an employee whose job it is to monitor a Gray alien being held captive in a secret facility, gets an upbraiding for using derogatory language when referring to the entities in his care. But Jack has the last laugh when HR manager Simon runs afoul of ants who are in the process of stealing his lunch.

Warning: both of these stories contain descriptions of talking ants, as well as humans eating alien flesh.

Length: 9,200 words.
