Book description
>Six months later, Sam is absolutely alone. In his underground
bunker he has food and water for a couple of days. He has no choice but
to venture above. Spotted by a flying drone, Sam escapes, but not before
the drone slashes him with a barbed tendril. That night, drenched in
sweat, Sam realises without medical supplies the wound will kill him.
This time above ground he is less lucky. Cornered again, Sam thinks he
has reached the end - then the drone is shot down in a hail of machine
gun fire.
In five minutes Sam learns two things: he is not alone; the drone injury
should have killed him instantly - yet he is still alive. The battle for
earth is about to begin.> Praise for the H. I.V. E. series: A comedy
