Description
The Harvesters is a gripping science fiction horror set in a realistic future. Packed full of action, gore and bloodthirsty aliens, this new novel from debut author Anthony Sparrow is set to be a hit with sci-fi fans everywhere.
“I read a lot of science fiction and have yet to come across books that try to be informative and realistic as well as a good read,” Anthony explains on the inspiration behind The Harvesters. “I have tried to focus on future possibilities that could happen, rather than total far-fetched fiction.”
The story, set in the year 2137, follows a series of events around Mars and the Asteroid Belt that reveal a disturbing truth about life out there in the universe. For centuries, a race of epenthetic alien humanoids have been harvesting the human populace covertly as fodder, sharing the solar system undetected. Until their primary food source becomes harder to obtain unobserved…
Forced to openly attack workers on Mars and mining vessels in the Asteroid Belt, these ‘harvesters’ alert the people of Earth and Mars to their presence. As plans are drawn up to defend the Martian Inhabitants from these hostile, bloodthirsty creatures, military teams are dispatched by the European government on Earth to assist in a battle that will ultimately decide the fate of the human race.
