THE SNOUTS ARE COMING

Men first saw the invader as a series of dots on astronomical plates. It moved in a way that meant it was operating under power, heading from Saturn directly toward Earth. And since no life was possible on Saturn or its moons, the ship had to be a visitor from another star.

THE ALIENS WERE ON THEIR WAY!

Mankind's frantic efforts to signal the invader went unanswered. First contact came when the aliens blasted the Soviet space station, seized the survivors and proceeded to destroy every dam and installation on Earth by a rain of asteroids from Space. Now the Snouts are descending on Kansas, demanding servile surrender or death for all humans.

Caught up in the ensuing war of indescribable violence and incredible destruction are dozens of truly memorable characters.

THIS IS HOW IT COULD HAPPEN--IN A NOVEL NEVER TO BE FORGOTTEN!
