Hush by MD Selig

 

Most writers fear one thing above all others: plagiarism; and they desire one thing above all others: inspiration. Strangely enough the difference between the two is very small and sometimes difficult to discern. (If I were in a cynical mood I would say it is sales figures!) For the first time I have come across another author who I am pretty sure has read the Roswell trilogy and it has given him ideas. Hush is a long, complex and intricate story by MD Selig, somebody I'd not previously heard of, involving a virtual laundry list of theories currently circulating in conspiratorial UFOlogy. They include the Nimitz footage, humanoid aliens living among us, catastrophic Disclosure, secret organizations, deep underground military bases, MH370, reptilians and adrenochrome harvesting, what the characters call "screamshit". The story follows Vyla Kells, a physicist who works at CERN who ends up joining MJ12 and investigating UFO's. It turns out she has family connections that make her a perfect applicant for the job. She also has some psionic abilities, including remote viewing. Her style of remote viewing is unusual though; she can not only see people and things in other places and times, she can place herself inside them and temporarily "become" them in the sense that she finds herself entering their own consciousness; seeing what they see, feeling what they feel and even thinking their thoughts. In this way she has insights into the Roswell incident and other conspiracies that nobody else could ever achieve. Oddly enough this concept also occurs in the new movie Disclosure Day, see: (coming soon). It was also the basis of Delores Cannon's mediumship. Like many people inside the programme, Vyla finds herself on the receiving end of surveillance and harassment. On her adventures she meets some very unusual individuals with names like "Plato" and "Swizzle". She discovers that people who appear to be humans from earth might in fact be nothing of the sort. They have intentions on humanity that are extremely disturbing and frightening; not least because, like everything else in this book, they might well be based on something that is true. This nightmarish theme may not be suitable for all readers. The author seems as embedded and institutionalised into the UFO, paranormal and conspiratorial world as I am. He has clearly studied the work of Ashton Forbes when it comes to the narrative about MH370. Some of the names mentioned in the story are real people, such as Michael Herrera, a member of the US Marine Corps who reports an encounter with an ET/secret space programme craft in Indonesia. Phil Schneider is also mentioned, a man who claimed to have fought against ET's in the DUMB at Dulce. One of the book's characters is called Eileen Fanton, a name that sounds very much like Lorien Fenton, who is a renowned figure in the UFOlogy and SSP research community, see: https://hpanwo-voice.blogspot.com/2025/06/ben-emlyn-jones-on-fenton-perspective.html and: https://hpanwo-tv.blogspot.com/2025/06/ben-in-desert-2.html. Selig must have heard of her and may have incorporated her name into his choice of handle for the character, if only even subconsciously. On the technical side, the book takes some getting used to. The dialogue paragraphing diverges from the conventional form with quotes being on a different line to the person speaking. After you learn to deal with that though, the story is absorbing and enthralling. Was MD Selig inspired by me? Quite possibly; he seems to know about almost everybody else in the UFO conspirasphere; he has to have come across HPANWO at some point and maybe also my own fiction. If so then do I object? No. In fact I'm glad to have given him this gift; and I don't care if Hush sells ten times as many copies as Roswell Rising. Actually I'm pleased for him. It is unhealthy to envy the success of others. Other conspiratologists have reviewed Hush by MD Selig, such as Laura Eisenhower and Barbara Lamb. I'm happy to add my name to that list.
