I wrote about the most difficult time of my life as it was happening and posted it on a blog. I’d been confronted with a chain of strange events that seemed impossible to understand. I tried to dismiss what was happening, but all the clues pointed to one thing, and I was forced to ask myself, “Am I a UFO abductee?

In Dimensions, Dr. Jacques Vallee reexamines the historical record that led to the modern UFO phenomenon and to the belief in alien contact. He then tackles the enigma of abduction reports, which come from various times and various countries, as well as the psychic and spiritual components of the contact experience. In the last portion of the book, he notes the factors that inhibit research into the phenomenon - the triple coverup and political motivations - and concludes that the extraterrestrial theory is simply not strange enough to explain the facts.

Critic reviews
Mike Clelland has clearly been holding out on us in waiting until now to produce his first—spectacular—work of fiction. The Unseen is riveting from beginning to end. Gripping storytelling, emotional nuance, and metaphysical mystery sweep the reader away on a tide of synchronicity, intuition, and high strangeness. Clelland masterfully paints the core emotional reality of being an experiencer: the rawness, the vulnerability, and the ever-ambiguous connection to truth. This is a work of fiction that could only be written by someone who deeply knows the reality of the phenomena. It’s destined to be a classic. —Sharon Hewitt Rawlette, PhD, Author of The Source and Significance of Coincidences
Mike Clelland’s new fiction book Unseen is a whole mood. There is a story beneath the story here, filled with longing and mystery and the hope of profound connection. It all remains tantalizingly beyond reach, leaving behind a strange sensation that’s somehow both familiar and foreign. This book is unsettling and sad, beautiful and redemptive. It has stayed with me. —Robin Lassiter, author of Earth: A Love Story
When one reads this book, a startling possibility emerges: that unexplained phenomena eagerly find refuge in the margins of fiction, where their existence is suspended between fact and fantasy. The Unseen may be from Mike Clelland’s head, but it isn’t in his head. It is a lived reality that every experiencer and student of the paranormal will find as authentic as any true tale. —Joshua Cutchin, author of The Ecology of Souls

And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Inheriting your uncle's supervillain business is more complicated than you might think. Particularly when you discover who's running the place. Charlie's life is going nowhere fast. A divorced substitute teacher living with his cat in a house his siblings want to sell, all he wants is to open a pub downtown, if only the bank will approve his loan. Then his long-lost uncle Jake dies and leaves his supervillain business (complete with island volcano lair) to Charlie. But becoming a supervillain isn't all giant laser death rays and lava pits.

Six days ago, astronaut Mark Watney became one of the first people to walk on Mars. Now, he's sure he'll be the first person to die there. After a dust storm nearly kills him and forces his crew to evacuate while thinking him dead, Mark finds himself stranded and completely alone with no way to even signal Earth that he’s alive - and even if he could get word out, his supplies would be gone long before a rescue could arrive. But Mark isn't ready to give up yet.

Story
Ashley Perrin is fresh out of college and starting a job as a community liaison for the Third District–the city’s only sector with more alien residents than humans. Ashley’s barely found where the paper clips are kept when she’s beset with constituent complaints–from too much noise at the Annual Lupidian Celebration Parade to a trip-and-fall chicken to a very particular type of alien hornet that threatens the very city itself. And if that’s not terrifying enough, Ashley is next up at the office karaoke night.

In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Amazing conclusion - D R E A M S
Overly Descriptive canyon land (for three chapters) stalls out the narrative flow.
Excessive use of I said, she said dialogue.
Otherwise I highly recommend this audiobook
Outstanding AF story
The barred owl freaked me out since I have a nesting pair in my backyard…
This book held a certain synchronicity for me with the owls.

I loved the mood of it
I was anticipating the audiobook release and was excited to listen. I could have listened in one sitting, if I had the time to do so. I enjoyed it a lot. I found myself googling flights to Utah and New Mexico. The book seemed “cinematic” in a good way.
I thought that the story balanced a lot of things well. Real life is stranger than fiction, and it would have been easy to overdo paranormal aspects. It threaded that needle nicely, in my opinion. It made me think about how many movies, books, etc. start with a writer legitimately wanting to explore some mysterious aspect of the world, but end up adding to the pile of common tropes or by turning the weirdness up to 11. I don’t think that this story does that, really. That being said, I think that small Mothman references didn’t totally fit. (The word “Mothman” isn’t used.)
Positives:
• The story’s pace is interesting. It made small things of life seem more interesting, but without meandering.
• I enjoyed the timeless aspects of it, and that characters didn’t reveal too much about themselves. I don’t think that the town is named, but I might be wrong.
• The mood/atmosphere was intriguing, but also distinctly calming. I know it’s a thriller, but it was chill, in a good way.
Negatives:
• I didn’t love the performance of the female voices. It’s not bad, necessarily, just my opinion.

A Spellbinding Journey Into the Unknown
Get ready for an adventure full of mystery, the strange, and a hauntingly beautiful desert landscape. Mike weaves a hypnotic spell with his almost poetic journey into the dark unknown. The narrator pushes you over the brink with his soothing performance. It will get its claws under your skin and not let you go until the moment the story ends. That's when you'll sit in silence and pray for a sequel. I've already read the book myself once, and knowing what curve balls are headed my way does nothing lessen the majesty of the story when listening to it in audio format. It's been over a decade since I last reread (or relistened) to a book I've read in the past. Mike's "The Unseen" was definitely worth the second round.

Another gem from Mike Clelland
Excellent first foray into long form fiction. Visceral, immersive descriptions. Those who live lives filled with synchronicities may find these adventures... strangely familiar. Cheers!
