This is a small hardcover novella and at 126 pages it's a very quick read. The jacket blurb says that the author is "a huge fan of the holidays and their accompanying frivolity and nonsense, and has written a marvelous array of Christmas stories". This is one of them. The story starts off in Denver where a space ship has landed on the Denver University campus, and six aliens have gotten out. Instead of doing anything expected like trying to take over the world or kidnap Earth women, these aliens just glare at everyone in disapproval.
Overall: I thought this was a cute, lighthearted, story with a tongue-in-cheek message. There's also a lot of Christmas and other holiday season songs, many versions of which I'd never heard of. Probably a nice story to read aloud closer to Christmas season.
