Katherine “Kitty” Katt from the Alien/Katherine “Kitty” Katt series by Gini Koch

“Welcome to My Super Secret Life, where people try to kill us on a regular basis and we thwart bad guy schemes for breakfast. We’re almost like a reality show, only without the alcohol and hot tubs.”

– Kitty Katt-Martini, Alien Diplomacy

Name: Katherine “Kitty” Katt-Martini

Occupation: Started out as a marketing manager. Then became a Superbeing Exterminator. Then became the Head of Airborne for Centaurion Division. Currently the Co-Head Diplomat for American Centaurion, housed in Washington, D.C. It’s been an exciting three years, let me tell you.

Species: Human. Well, mostly human. A little more than human now.

Speaks: English, smattering of French, and the language of comics, rock ‘n’ roll, and pop culture.

Age: 29

Height: 5’4”

Hair Color: Blondish

Eyes: Blue

Identifying physical marks: Usually wearing an Aerosmith (or other cool band) t-shirt, jeans, and red Converse, carrying a large, black, cheap leather purse, and usually hanging with the most gorgeous people on Earth. Sure, most of them or their parents came from a planet in the Alpha Centauri system, but they’re just like us, if we all had two hearts, could run at hyperspeed, were much stronger than humans, and were the focus of almost every conspiracy or takeover plan for the last fifty or sixty years. Did I mention all of them are drop dead gorgeous?

Gini Koch about Katherine “Kitty” Katt

For those readers who may not know you, please tell them a few tidbits about Kitty?She’s a regular gal who discovers that the Roswell rumors are true, but with a twist — the aliens are here to help us, and as a side benefit, they’re all gorgeous. She gets involved in the fight to protect the Earth from some very dangerous things both external and very internal, and along the way discovers a lot of conspiracies, secrets, and lies. She also finds a lot of friends and colleagues. Kitty’s never met a problem she won’t face head-on, and that can’t be solved with “so far out of the box, may not know there IS a box” thinking, hairspray, and rock ‘n’ roll.
Questions we asked Katherine “Kitty” Katt from the Alien/Katherine “Kitty” Katt series by Gini Koch!
What did you do before the story began?

Depends on what story you’re talking about. If you mean the overall story of my life once I discovered aliens really exist on Earth, then I was a marketing manager. If you mean before Alien vs. Alien, I had just become the co-Head Diplomat for the American Centaurion Embassy, in Washington, D.C. And was, for the most part, hating every embarrassing minute of it.
What is your favorite part/memory?

Again, depends on what story we’re talking about — Alien vs. Alien, or my story overall. Overall, my wedding to Jeff in Alien in the Family was definitely a highlight. In terms of Alien vs. Alien, I have to give it to the Peregrines.
If Kitty and her husband Jeff would go on a date, where would it be and why?

If I were planning it, an Aerosmith concert, because they’re the best band in the world. If Jeff was planning it, probably a romantic dinner at a great restaurant in New York, take in a Broadway show, then a late supper and dancing afterwards. Jeff’s way more romantic than I am.
What are your favorite weapons?

I’m open to using whatever’s at hand. I always carry a Glock, but I also use hairspray, rock ‘n’ roll, Mont Blanc pens, and anything else I have at hand to save the day.
What/who would you never want to come across again?

Leventhal Reid. Of all the big bads, he was the most sadistically evil for the sheer joy of it. Pure human, pure evil. We killed him in Alien Tango, but his influence remains.
If you could have a re-match. With who would that be?

Gosh. Well, technically, we have a really big rematch in Alien vs. Alien. I’m going to leave it at that, but if we’re talking rematch, this is the one.
How do you see your future?

Filled with excitement and explosions. Because I look at my future in the same way the weather people look at the weather — whatever it is today, It’s probably going to be the same tomorrow.

“My crazy’s working a lot better than your sanity.” Kitty Katt, Touched by an Alien

“Boys, the longer you wait to get my requested prehistoric attack dogs, the more chance we have of people we care about getting hurt, more hurt, or killed. Oh, and don’t hurt the alligators — they’re a protected species.” Kitty Katt, Alien Tango

“Then Jareen? Let’s go show these interstellar assholes how Naked Apes and Iguanodons do things out here in the wild, wild West.” Kitty Katt, Alien in the Family

“I’m Wolverine with boobs! I’m Wolverine with boobs!” Kitty Katt-Martini, Alien Proliferation

Alien vs. Alien

Jeff and Kitty Katt-Martini and the rest of the American Centaurion Diplomatic Corps are still recovering from their introduction to Washington D.C. politics, parties, and conspiracies. So when compromising pictures arrive, no one’s too surprised. They’re also the least of anyone’s worries.

Evil androids running amok, birds of all kinds and from all places creating havoc, a Senator trapped in an ever-tightening web of intrigue, and escalating international tensions all seem tough but manageable. But the disappearance of Jeff Martini and Charles Reynolds during the International One World Festival signals more than the usual nastiness — and it looks like even ACE can’t help them.

Then new trouble arrives in old packages and even with the best hackers in the world, beings from near and far, the full might of Earth’s military, and the Wonder Twins on their side, Centaurion Division’s outmanned and outgunned.

Now Kitty’s racing against the clock to find not only Jeff and Chuckie, but to keep the peace between Middle Eastern countries, all while searching for the bases of super-soldier operations — to stop them or die trying.

And, one teaser line from Alien vs. Alien:

“We’re well beyond DEFCON Worse. We’re at DEFCON Oh My God, and even I don’t know what DEFCON we’re going to hit soon.” – Kitt Katt-Martini
