Outside Cincinnati, Ohio, there is a wasteland that used to be Wright-Patterson Air Force base. Three years ago the aliens invaded there, turning Wright-Pat into a nuclear wasteland, the detritus of a terrible battle. It was no ordinary battle, but a battle with something utterly unworldly, something unhuman and inhuman, a force no man could ever hope to master. . . . Now the aliens have returned -- their agents walk among us, indistinguishable from you or I. The Aliens have landed. And nothing in the world will ever be the same.

This book explains the origin of the word "moose" and examines their evolution, present day distr
