An infection that consumes and changes people...
When an alien entity lands in the remote Appalachian Mountains, a clairvoyant psychology professor, a drunken dirt farmer, and a disillusioned tycoon must team up to stop it before the infection spreads.
But with Windshake's annual spring festival coming, the town is full of visitors, unaware of the unnatural menace creeping toward them from the woods...
Scott has an incredible brain. He comes up with plenty of “why didn’t I think of that?” stories. This foray into the realm of monster science fiction, while not his best work, is still a solid read with plenty of artful prose. I have to agree that there were too many characters that should’ve been combined. I did have to stop every so often to re-read a section because I thought someone else was the focus. All in all, I did find this to be an enjoyable read full of wacky characters getting sucked into an Outer Limits creature. I’m a big fan of the 1950’s B-movies, and I think this would’ve made a fantastic black-and-white flick. Worth a spot on your Kindle.
