LISTED AS A BEST INDIE BOOK OF 2022 BY KIRKUS REVIEWS Kelvoo is overcome with wonder at the arrival of the humans. With flawless memories and innate curiosity, Kelvoo's community embraces the benevolent humans and their knowledge of the boundless universe beyond the cloud-covered sky. After the departure of the first contact mission, an unscrupulous human lands in Kelvoo's village, inviting Kelvoo and eight others to join a "goodwill mission" to faraway worlds. Lured into a trap and enslaved by an outlaw gang, Kelvoo's group is forced to participate in an interstellar crime spree, and subjected to the worst of human nature. Realizing that the mission is destined to end with their murder, Kelvoo's team must use their limited insight into human nature to understand and escape the brutality of their captors. With Kelvoo's world and species vulnerable to exploitation, failure would have devastating consequences far beyond Kelvoo's own death. --- Kelvoo's Testimoninal is equal parts action, philosophy, and hard science fiction. Written as Kelvoo's personal account, Kelvoo's Testimonial provides an outsider's view of humanity in all its beauty and savagery. "A simple but profound futuristic story of the painful effects of colonization." - Kirkus Reviews (starred review)
