Reseña del libro "Snatched (en Inglés)"
From the New York Times bestselling author of Cocoon--adapted into an Academy Award-winning movie--comes a sci-fi adventure about family, love, and, in a universe teeming with life, deciding who and what are the aliens. Six single, semi-retired, "older" women are inseparable friends. But their lives start to go haywire when mischievous Rosie submits her friends' names to an ad soliciting "Mail Order Brides for Farmers & Miners--Distant Locations." A few weeks later, as the six women are driving along a lonely beach road, their vehicle suddenly begins to shake, the sky grows dark, an eerie light envelops the van, and ZAP--it's gone! Exactly three years later, the van reappears on the same road. But this time, the women appear to be thirty years younger--and they're all pregnant! The "distant locations" advertised were, in fact, elsewhere in our galaxy. A process, required for deep space travel, has somehow reversed their aging. They are happy with their new lives. However, a universal law requires that babies of "mixed-mating" be born on the mother's home planet, forcing their return. But as they re-adapt to life on earth, surprises and problems arise as they're faced with a media circus, doctors, nurses, police, priests, and nuns, not to mention their new humanoid mates. In Saperstein's wacky, comedic-drama tradition that's out of this world, Snatched builds to an exciting, uplifting climax that celebrates life, love, and the universal condition known as family.
