Greetings, Earthling.

Welcome to Cedar Ridge - a quiet mountain town where gossip spreads faster than the flu, cows keep dying in suspiciously creative ways, and the new doctor might not technically have a heartbeat. Dr. Finch arrived after a "meteor" crashed in the woods. He's polite. He's brilliant. He's also. not entirely human. His bedside manner is impeccable, provided you don't mind being studied like a particularly dumb lab rat.
To him, death is just a "functional inconvenience."To everyone else, he's a walking red flag wrapped in a lab coat. As Finch tries to understand human emotions (and why they leak water from their eyes so much), the townsfolk of Cedar Ridge descend into paranoia, cultism, and poorly organized mob activity. Sheriff Mabel wants answers. Nina thinks he's misunderstood. Father Pike thinks he's the second coming.
Finch, meanwhile, thinks humans are a failed experiment with good snack potential. Darkly funny, deeply weird, and occasionally disgusting, Neither Man Nor Monster is a black-comedy sci-fi tale about one alien's attempt to study humanity - and his growing suspicion that extinction might be a mercy. Featuring: A doctor who doesn't believe in "consent forms" A sheriff with anger issues and a taser she really enjoys A priest who probably shouldn't be allowed near fire A bartender with questionable taste in men A cult that's probably not tax-exempt And one alien doctor who's about to lose his patience with the entire species
