Summary
"What if the women of a sleepy English village became simultaneously pregnant, and the children, once born, possessed supernatural--and possibly alien--powers? A mysterious silver object appears in quiet, picture-perfect Midwich. A day later, the object is gone--and all the women in the village, they will come to learn, are now pregnant. The resultant children of Midwich are shockingly, frighteningly other. Given these unfathomable and potentially unstoppable offspring, the question dren, the arises: Can Midwich and its youngest inhabitants coexist in peace? The Midwich Cuckoos is a genre-defining tale of first contact by one of the twentieth century's most brilliant--and neglected--science fiction and horror wirters."--, Back cover
