Safety Protocols for Human Holidays: A Holiday to Remember by Angel MartinezMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
A fun and quirky little Christmas tale set on a space ship with species of all kinds. And there is one lonely human onboard. When the Human Jen is deemed to be not to be behaving as before, the Captain of the ship orders Growlan Raskli, as the only other ‘lactating placental species’ on the ship, to investigate why Human Jen is not acting right.
Growlan Raskli sets out to find out as much about humans as the data allows. While on her journey of discovery, she finds that she is developing feeling for Jen. And that Jen returns those feeling. And through talking to Jen, she comes to realize that Jen is missing the holiday season that happens on Earth. So, to remedy this, she along with the rest of the crew, set out to give Jen the whole of Earth’s winter holidays rolled into one.
As with all this author’s stories, the world building is superb. The aliens are well written, you have no trouble picturing them. There is a lot of humor, a little snark, and moments that make you feel good. Wonderful story.
