When Chris Brancato learned that the Ultimate First Wave Book would be out soon he said,

"I'm dying to see the book. I'll order copies right away. Can't wait to see it!"

Sebastian Spence said this when he heard the book would be out very soon,

"For three years I fought the fictitious invasion of our planet with Eddie at my side, Joshua at my back, Jordan and the Raven Nation, my allies, and a whole slew of believers along the way. Some of Cade Foster's stories will never leave me, while others gently slip into the harrowed reaches of my memory, a testament to three years of hunting aliens. I could not even begin to recount all of my memories of the battle. It almost seems as if I would have to become Cade Foster for that. Because most of the time, that's who I was, and the memories sometimes seem like his."

"To the fans who watched and to those who are still watching, I give all my thanks, without whose intense belief (like my own) in the character of Cade Foster, his allies, and his journey these stories couldn't have been told."

"To the cast and crew, Chris Brancato, Larry Sugar, Rob LaBelle, Roger Cross, Traci Lords, Banana, Jo, all the directors, the wonderful crew… I miss you. To my good friend, the indomitable, wonderfully talented, and supportive, Miss B. Widro, I give my thanks for creating a place for these memories. "

"I wait with bated breath and a glass of wine, and look forward to getting my hands on a copy of the First Wave book and taking a trip down memory lane."
