As Only Human opens, we learn that our Earthlings have been transported to the alien home planet, which finally gets a name – Esat Ekt. With the immediate threat removed, Vincent, Rose, and Eva are celebrating their victory, when they suddenly realize they’re not on Earth any longer. The previous book, Waking Gods, ends on a cliffhanger. Here, in Only Human, we find out how it all works out. In the first two Themis Files books, we see the discovery of a giant robot, which is in truth an alien artifact, leading to an alien invasion that threatens the survival of all humankind. I have loved The Themis Files books since day one, so it’s probably no surprise that I really and truly loved this concluding volume as well. And she must pick up the pieces of the Earth Defense Corps as her own friends turn against each other. Now, after nearly ten years on another world, Rose returns to find her old alliances forfeit and the planet in shambles. She, along with linguist Vincent, pilot Kara, and the unnamed Interviewer, protected the Earth from geopolitical conflict and alien invasion alike. Rose Franklin led the team that uncovered the rest of the body parts which together form Themis: a powerful robot of mysterious alien origin. In her childhood, Rose Franklin accidentally discovered a giant metal hand buried beneath the ground outside Deadwood, South Dakota.
