Squirm

by Justin Lindner

What do you do when a head shot doesn't kill a charging "zombie"?Swarms of insects have descended on cities all over the globe with no warning killing billions of people in a matter of hours. The remaining people of Earth stand on the edge of extinction. The threat facing our planet is like nothing it has seen before. The swarms were only the beginning, and they alone have altered our planet forever. Earth is about to fight its costliest and most horrific war in history, but they wont be alone. Bizarre allies have arrived to help offering a small glimmer of hope in what many people are sure is the start of the apocalypse. Part one sets the stage for the rest of the series, but it is an epic story on its own. It is action packed and features frightening horror and fantasy elements blended with its science fiction core.
