About This Book

A returning biologist-explorer comes back from a year of Venus research to find everyday metal spontaneously disintegrating across Earth. As strange failures spread, scientific and political authorities mobilize and summon him to evaluate the phenomenon. Investigation moves from spaceport oddities to Government Center and secret laboratories as he pieces together a crisis that links malfunctioning machinery, hybrid or half-human creatures, and hostile automatons. The narrative mixes speculative science, tense confrontations, and rescue missions as he struggles to unravel the cause and to avert extinction for two threatened races whose fates are bound to the unfolding mechanical menace.
