Jordani’s Closer Encounters is a thought-provoking exploration of humanity’s potential first contact with intelligent alien life. Through a series of fictional vignettes, Jordani examines how different cultures and belief systems might react to such a monumental event. While some stories feel overly preachy, the strongest entries deftly weave philosophical musings with gripping narratives. Jordani’s prose shines when depicting the sheer existential shock of confirming we are not alone in the universe. An uneven but fascinating read that prompts self-reflection on our cosmic significance.
