Description:

Man invents
Man discovers
Man develops
...And man destroys

OUt of the innocence of discovery and that fulfilling moment when theory becomes a workable reality, a monstrous horror grows. Grows, multiplies, and degenerates until it reaches the ultimate terror.

Terror spawned in a laboratory intended to creat a new generation that is stronger, brighter and longer-lived.

Horror nurtured in a public relations office on the day the first interplanetary life is discovered.

Only such masters of science fiction as James Blish and Robert Silverberg could have brought such a startling reality to the havoc wreaked by a test tube and a conference table.
