Description
On a beautiful summer day in 2026, they silently drifted down through our skies. We thought they were angelic messengers.
We were wrong.
They arrived by the hundreds of thousands on June 6th, 2026. The aliens silently drifted down through our skies, hovering fifty feet above us for three long, tense months at a geostationary orbit, taking up positions around the world. No one knew why they came . . . what they wanted . . . or why they wouldn’t just go away.
Then, the unthinkable happened. They suddenly came to life . . . and hunted us down. We eventually called them gorgons—after the mythical creature Medusa—because you cannot lock eyes with them under any circumstances. If you do, it’s all over. They possess a terrifying telepathic paralytic to freeze us where we stand and consume us at their leisure, leaving us to feel every excruciating bite. There was no escape, no hiding from their relentless pursuit. Our only defense was to run.
By the end of 2026, eighty-five percent of mankind had been killed off. The alien invasion turned Planet Earth into a dystopian ghost town, with the few survivors eking out an existence in the shadows. Andrew Shipley is one such survivor thrust into an extraordinary nightmare of post-apocalyptic proportions. As chaos erupts, hope dwindles for Andrew, his wife and his three small children. Will they make it? Or will the gorgons get them too?
