The Alien Years

It was the worst of times...Fifteen feet tall, the Entities land in cities across Earth. Ignoring humankind, they wall themselves in impenetrable enclaves, enslaving a few willing collaborators with the telepathic PUSH. Then they plunge humans in a new Dark Age without electricity, allowing us to live-but no longer as a dominant species.But a few refuse to submit to fate, including the Carmichael family, whose patriarch will inspire a daring new generation of dissidents. United in spirit, these diverse rebels-an aging hippie, a cold-blooded assassin, a prodigal son, and a renegade hacker-will attempt to kill the mysterious Prime Entity and free the planet.A novel that evokes the feeling of Heinlein at his best. (And not unwittingly; the major character name "Anson" will certainly strike a chord with Heinlein fans.): ) Fans of H.G. Wells' War of the Worlds will find a good read as well.An epic masterpiece."The ultimate alien invasion novel"-Jack McDevitt"Sobering and frightening... Silverberg's rich characters, his dead-on target vision of modern society, his mastery at building tension-are all in evidence in this notable outing from one of the very best."-Publishers Weekly
