War Against the Chtorr
 |
Bushes. Trees. Dogs. Cows. Cars. And people. Especially people. The worms eat everything slower than they are. And the worms are very fast. The worms grow up to six feet long. No¸ ten. Twenty. Thirty... They just keep getting bigger and hungrier. They're the spearhead of an alien invasion... an ecological invasion. There seems to be no guiding intelligence -- just thousands of different alien plants and animals¸ cooperating with each other as they destroy Terran species. More than half the world's population has fallen to alien diseases¸ and the rest are becoming worm food. So mankind unites against the threat... No¸ it doesn't. Earth's nations continue to struggle against each other¸ even as the aliens grow¸ and spread¸ and multiply¸ and eat. The world needs heroes. Or the world will be gone¸ turned into a screaming red jungle¸ a duplicate of the invading planet Chtorr.
