For years, writers and filmmakers have speculated about the possibility of the Earth being invaded by aliens from another planet. But what if the aliens have been watching us, infiltrating us via human collaborators, or even surgically altering themselves to look human? Occupied Earth is a groundbreaking anthology that explores the idea of what the world would look like years after its conquest.Twenty years after a successful invasion by the Makh-Ra, human beings still exist, only they have become subservient to a new race of occupiers who now govern the devastated planet. But, as much at things continue with some sense of normalcy, something has happened in the Mahk-Ra's empire. Earth, once considered a strategic beachhead of major importance to the Empire, has been downgraded in its value. Things are starting to degrade. Our planet is the last place any self-respecting Mahk-Ra officer wants to be assigned. Yet, despite everything, life continues. Occupied Earth brings us face to face with annihilation-and shows how we can pull ourselves back from the brink.

Each story is a slice of life and what it's like living under alien occupation By Frank Errington Every now and again I like to step away from the horror genre and read something different. I saw this one and thought it might be a nice change of pace. It was exceptional. Occupied Earth: Stories of Aliens, Resistance and Survival at all Costs is a shared world anthology where the earth has been conquered by an alien race and is now under their rule. Each story is a slice of life and what it's like living under the authority of the Mahk-Ra.There weren't a lot of familiar names in this anthology, at least they weren't familiar to me, they may be to you, and they certainly are to the writers themselves.Each writer manages to tell a solid story of life in the aftermath of an alien invasion, and at the same time keep the overall mythos of the new Earth consistent throughout. Kudos to editors Richard Brewer and Gary Phillips who, no doubt, played a big part in pulling that off.Hunter X – Parts 1-3 by Richard Brewer and Gary PhillipsRichard and Gary are the editors of the anthology. Richard is a native Californian, has always been a lover of stories and storytelling. He has worked as a writer, actor, bookseller, story editor, book reviewer, movie and television Development Executive, and audiobook narrator. Gary has family roots in Texas and the Mississippi Delta, he's a native of L.A. and was editor of the bestselling Orange County Noir. His graphic novel about a money launderer, The Rinse, has been optioned for television.The Hunter X story is split into three parts. It starts and ends the anthology and there's another piece about midway through the book. In this story FBI Special Agent, Paul Hunter, and his partner, JoHannas-ra, make up the first Mahk-Ra-human investigative team. "...a shining symbol of interspecies cooperation. Harmony among the species and all that." Told with a touch of humor, this story sets the stage fort the rest of the anthology.Do No Harm by Rachel Howzell Hall and David W. HallRachel Howzell Hall is the author of the critically-acclaimed mystery series featuring LAPD Homicide Detective Elouise Norton. David Hall is the Design Director for the digital arm of the Oprah Winfrey Network (OWN). This is his first story collaboration with his wife writer Rachel Howzell Hall.Years after the Mahk-Ra occupation two EMTs just doing their job stumble upon a scene which will change their lives again. Just because the Mahk-Ras can do whatever they like doesn't make it right.Pike Street Pick-Up by Adam L. KorenmanAdam Korenman has been dabbling in writing for most of his life, but only recently began spilling the crazy thoughts down on paper. Adam is also a Captain with the Army National Guard, serving with a company of tankers in California.Pike Street Pick-Up is a fine story of a street urchin and pickpocket who lifts more than he bargains for from a Mahk-Ra official.Union Day by Lisa MortonLisa is a six-time winner of the Bram Stoker Award®, a recipient of the Black Quill Award, and winner of the 2012 Grand Prize from the Halloween Book Festival. She also knows more about Halloween than just about anyone in the world.Union Day is a Halloween story, of sorts, set in this shared world of alien domination.How the Game is Played by Rob HartRob Hart has been a political reporter, the communications director for a politician, and a commissioner for the City of New York. His debut novel, New Yorked, was published by Polis Books in June 2015.How the Game is Played shows how even with the occupation it's politics as usual.Strange Alliance by Cliff AllenCliff is a lifelong fan of the space program, and that has led to an avid interest in science fiction as a literary form.Strange Alliance features clever storytelling and good writing. It's about a merciless human who rises high in the ranks of the Mahk-Ra.Hope by Matthew V. ClemensMatthew V. Clemens is a long-time co-conspirator with Max Allan Collins, the pair have collaborated on over twenty novels – including CSI and Criminal Minds TV tie-in books.Hope is another well-told story of occupation and resistance and how one should never jump to conclusions.Location, Location, Location by Howard V. HendrixHoward Hendrix is the award-winning author of six novels, as well as numerous non-fiction books and short stories.A prime example of how life goes on after the occupation. The story of an ex-astronaut turned real estate agent working to make a sale of a movie making property to the Mahk-Re.Letting Go the Ghosts by Marsheila Rockwell and Jeffrey J. MariotteMarsheila (Marcy) Rockwell and Jeffrey J. Mariotte have written more than 60 novels between them. They’ve also written dozens of short stories, separately and together.For the Occupied Earth anthology they've written a powerful story of the Taovayan native Anerican tribe continuing to make their way under Mahk-Ra occupation. Now comes an offer for the mineral rights to their land that the Taovayan cannot refuse, but not everyone believes they should sell.A Day in the Life by R. M. JohnsonRichard M. Johnson is a screenwriter, copywriter, playwright, and poet. His short stories can be found in several anthologies. He is also a performer and photographer and uses both avocations as excuses to occasionally get out of the house and into the sun.Another solid story.

He is President of Mystery Writers of America SoCal chapter, a member of the board of Sisters in Crime LA, and an active member of the Writers Guild of America and International Thriller Writers.This was my personal favorite story in the anthology.

She is an audiobook producer of hundreds of audiobooks, more than a few of which have been nominated for Grammy Awards.Another well told story of Mahk-Ra and humans working together, with a nice twist.Johnny and the Warehouse Women by Nathan WalpowNathan Walpow is a prolific writer, a past president of the Southern California chapter of Mystery Writers of America, and a five-time Jeopardy! champion.A simple warehouse robbery uncovers a prostitution ring involving Mahk-Re women. From there, things get a bit complicated.Traitor by Adam Lance GarciaAdam Lance Garcia was raised on comic books, movie serials, and lightsabers.

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Alien occupation anthology with a mix of fun & action By Joe Crowe This is an anthology with a shared continuity about alien occupation. Of course, this isn't a new concept. But new concepts are overrated. This one has worked since or before "War of the Worlds," and clearly, these writers know what they're doing. That's obvious from the intro, which references occupied-Earth stories I'd never heard of (I bought a couple already.)Sidebar: That's the beauty of an anthology. You find new writers to acquire and consume. End sidebar.None of the stories provide info-dumps about the setting. They just start the characters up in the world and reveal it through dialogue. That's excellent.The stories range from brutal and R-rated to straight-up sci-fi action. My favorite is Lisa Morton's "Union Day," which says that the alien occupiers don't allow Halloween. I gasped. There, I said it. That's how the story starts.One neat thing about the book as a complete entity is the presence of hope. It's not dystopia and misery. The oppressed plan to rebel. The good guys aim to fight. That's good stuff. ( reviewed by Joe Crowe, RevolutionSF.com, http://www.twitter.com/RevolutionSF)

Even though I dislike short stories and hate science fiction, especially post-apocalyptic settings, I found myself unable to put the book down. Kudos to all contributors.
