Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)

Review: 2019.238 (A Word for Authors)

Pro: Ironically, SETI finds the first evidence of alien intelligence right her in our solar system. Naturally, they have a big fight over it. And then the intelligence has some disturbing problems.

Con: It’s a confused mess, unless I’m missing something. What’s the point of the argument between Seanna and Camden? Why are the aliens sending an SOS and broadcasting “Heil Hitler?”
