  • Close Encounters

    C.M. Johnson, Nicole Gose, Full Tilt Press

    Audiobook (Full Tilt Press, Dec. 1, 2018)
    Strange lights are seen dancing above a ridge of mountains in Appalachia - too quick to be satellites and too random to be planes. Large symbols have been pressed into fields of crops, visible from high in the air. Are they messages, or are they the work of people playing a trick? Urban Legends: Close Encounters, part of Full Tilt’s Origins series, presents timelines, stories, and fun facts about aliens and UFOs. Listeners will discover thrilling tales of alien abductions and UFO sightings, and will be invited to consider an age-old question: Are we alone in the universe, or have alien lifeforms already made contact?

    language (Aladdin, May 22, 2012)
    Could aliens actually exist in small-town Vermont? Nancy suspects not...Nancy, Bess and George have driven from River Heights to northern Vermont to visit a friend of George and her mom's who owns a quaint, touristy small restaurant/café in a town near a major ski resort. They are amazed that though it is past the height of foliage season, and barely ski season, there is a traffic jam of cars waiting to catch a ferry; they decide to drop out of line and drive to a local diner. When they question the waitress about what is going on, she is surprised they haven't heard but there have been repeated and credible UFO sightings over the border in ski country in Vermont. George jokes about little green men in snowsuits. Bess suggests the men are red but wearing green snowsuits. Nancy simply cracks up, but grows serious when the waitress reveals that even Federal government investigators have been called in--"Vermont is turning into a North Country Roswell, New Mexico!" It's been great for business, here and throughout northern Vermont, particularly for the town at the foot of the ski resort, but we're all getting a little tired of the crowds, the waitress confides.

  • Close Encounters

    Carolyn Keene

    Paperback (Aladdin, Dec. 26, 2006)
    When George, Bess and I headed to Brody's Junction, Vermont, to help George's cousin with her café's website and enjoy a brief vacation, we were looking forward to some downtime -- not to landing in the middle of a media circus. Hundreds of tourists have invaded the town to watch purported UFO sightings. Odder still are reports of townspeople being abducted, and the strange clues that seem to point to little green men as the culprits. All this speculation has the town going wild, and I hope to have a close encounter with some hard facts before things spin entirely out of control....
