Tales of the Multiverse: Volume 3: They Came for Dinner — Kathleen West

An alien race called the Whatchamacallit? has discovered something irresistible about the human race – that they are delicious to eat. They have arrived on planet Earth with the intent of harvesting humans as livestock. They have demanded tribute under the threat of chaos to modern civilization. Greta Müller (an Earthling) and her friends, both “artificially intelligent” entities and horse-like alien creatures, offer hope to defeat the Whatchamacallit? who consider humans an inferior life form to be done with as the alien threat pleases: to be on their dinner plate. A top-secret group of military, scientists, and government officials discovered that Earth faces a grave threat unless they give in to the demands of the hungry Whatchamacallit? aliens. They are on the hunt to find Greta and collaborate on how to repel the alien threat. Allies are also on the way to help. But first, they must travel across the galaxy and evade capture by those who deem them criminals. In this sequel to “Predator and Prey”, old friends and foes return to aid in the continuing story of the greatest alien threat against human civilization. The Whatchamacallit? came to Earth for dinner and to seek revenge for the murder of their queen. Kathleen West is an engineer who uses the logical side of her brain so often that her creative brain begs for attention. She received inspiration for her novels through strange and vivid dreams that detailed how people from different times, places, and worlds died. Kathleen decided that these ghost dream stories should be shared in her Tales of the Multiverse® – stories that in another dimension of space, our deepest imaginations, or perhaps in another time or place, may have happened to you.
