They Came from Up

A Smashed Foot Stuck in the Earth Invasion Story

De: Richard DeVall

Narrado por: Cathi Colas

Sarah is broke and alone with a head full of questions about her husband’s sudden death. A stranger comes to her door and wants to rent a room. He is so strange, she contacts her pastor to talk about it. The pastor slips her a sticky note - "They can hear you talk" - those words accelerate this pause-resisting novel toward a conclusion like no other in the broad spectrum of science fiction.

Sarah is chased and beaten. She is a survivor. Once this middle aged woman gets mad it's the sole emotion she has, and once the adrenaline drops she's a terrified human. The eventual outcome is nothing anyone who listens for an escape, relaxation, or fun could foresee. This is a unique novel packed full of twisting action propelled by movement and humor.

Body-snatching aliens with a new twist

A mix of Invasion of the Body Snatchers and a couple other 50s-era alien invasion movies I can think of, along with a twilight Zone type of feel, as Sarah tries her best to convince people that everyone around her in her home town is being replaced by... things. Normally you'd think things would finally end when our heroine finally convinces the military to come calling, but nope. I won't say how it winds up except to say that them aliens can get real creative when it comes to punishing the unruly little natives.
