The Metamorphosis is a novella written by Franz Kafka that was first published in 1915.

Another planet. Zero survival skills. Would you survive? Or would you do your best to find your own happy place and pretend that nothing has changed? Until you are staring blankly into the eyes of all that has changed. Would you go on a murderous killing spree or would you allow yourself to be someone else's dinner? With help from the remnants of an extinct civilization and the emotional support of others that refused to be meals for the Goran, the protagonist fights a few battles both internal and outwardly for the benefit of those that have become his family.
