About
Annihilation meets Day of the Triffids in this full-on body horror/alien invasion apocalypse.
This is just a story. It can't hurt you anymore.
Since she was three years old, Anastasia Miller has been telling anyone who would listen that she's an alien disguised as a human being, and that the armada that left her on Earth is coming for her. Since she was three years old, no one has been willing to listen.
Now, with an alien signal from the stars being broadcast around the world, humanity is finally starting to realize that it's already been warned, and it may be too late. The invasion is coming, Stasia's biological family is on the way to bring her home, and very few family reunions are willing to cross the gulf of space for just one misplaced child.
What happens when you know what's coming, and just refuse to listen? Mira Grant is the author of the New York Times bestselling Newsflesh trilogy, along with multiple other works of biomedical science fiction. She has been nominated for the Hugo Award, and her book, Feed, was chosen as one of NPR's 100 Killer Thrillers.

"Caitlin Kelly narrates this horror story about a race of alien plants and their impending invasion. Anastasia was forever altered at 3 years old when she went missing in the woods and encountered a cannibalistic plant. Now her mundane adult life includes working at a call center and dating her trans boyfriend, but she'll tell anyone she meets that the invasion is coming. Kelly differentiates characters smoothly, and her youthful voice and enhanced articulation suit Anastasia's feelings of otherness. Where the pace of the prose slows, Kelly's narration keeps listeners focused on the drawn-out details of Anastasia's experience with bodily changes. And as the world begins to realize that Anastasia is telling the truth, Kelly expands her emotional depictions of the characters and the situation they find themselves in.
