🌌 Where the reeds of a quiet Australian swamp met the mysteries of the cosmos, a story was born that would change the way we think about alien life...

In 1966, an unexplained incident in rural Queensland sparked global intrigue. A disc-shaped object, a mysterious nest in the reeds, and a witness whose experience blurred the lines between reality and science fiction—this is the true account and cultural echo of The Tully Saucer Nest.

Patrick Gunn's compelling narrative dives deep into one of the most curious UFO sightings in history and traces its ripple effects across the golden age of science fiction. Blending real-life mystery with literary analysis, cultural commentary, and sharp wit, this book explores:

The intersection of UFO phenomena with classic sci-fi literature of the 1960s

The evolving representation of alien encounters in art, fiction, and media

Groundbreaking feminist and humorous reinterpretations of sci-fi tropes

Character studies that mirror the human condition in the face of the unknown

Perfect for fans of Philip K. Dick, Arthur C. Clarke, and curious minds hungry for a blend of history, pop culture, and extraterrestrial possibilities. The Tully Saucer Nest is not just a chronicle—it's a cultural time capsule and a narrative journey into the unknown.

👽 Is it fact? Is it fiction? Or something else entirely?
Discover the story that made the world stop and look to the skies.
