Publisher's summary

New ER doctor Alexi Sur always intended to join an aid agency. She'd just expected to work among humans.

When the Pax Galactica Corps becomes her only option (don't ask—the debts aren't hers, but the family is, much to her regret), Alexi finds herself traveling the galaxy and learning alien physiology and culture, all while becoming a reality TV star.

Being pursued by camera drones and starring in her very own Welcome-to-the-Universe documentary was never on Alexi's to-do list. She's positive the show will flop. After all, Alexi is boring. That's why her boyfriend left her for her stepsister.

But as trillions of aliens tune in to watch Alexi discover the universe in Doctor Galaxy, what she discovers is the existential threat facing humanity.

Major Soren Agha already knows about the danger. He's currently playing peacekeeper for the Eripi of the Pariah Sector, whose tragic fate could be humanity's: conquered, exploited, lost.

Can one dedicated doctor save humanity? Can she, as Soren believes, also save the Eripi? And would anyone really notice if she sabotaged a couple of pesky camera drones?

Doctor Galaxy is a medical romantic comedy and a space opera. Reality TV has never been so alien!

Enjoyed this take on Alien Contact

A lighthearted romance mixed with some self-growth and “what-if” earth met alien civilizations. Enjoyed it and listened to it in one day. Definitely recommend

Convoluted

I’m a fan of Ms. Schwartz’ writings, but this one is just a little too convoluted politically for me and my poor pea brain. It was a struggle to keep track of it for me. Ms. Brentan was awesome however.

A favorite ‘cozy’ sci-fi

A fun, character-driven sci-fi with a touch of romance and room for deeper thought, I truly enjoy this story.

The narrators chosen voices (and cadence) can be difficult to listen, but generally I appreciate her narration.
