The Green Brain - Thryft

Eco-warriors fight mutant insects for survival.

"The Green Brain is a thrilling science-fiction novel that will appeal to fans of Frank Herbert's Dune series. The book's unique premise of battling mutated insects in a fight for ecological survival is both exciting and thought-provoking. The vividly described jungle landscapes and complex characters add depth and intrigue to the already gripping plotline. Overall, The Green Brain is a must-read for any sci-fi enthusiast looking for an imaginative and intellectually stimulating adventure."

Description

In an overpopulated world seeking living room in the jungles, the International Ecological Organization was systematically exterminating the voracious insects which made these areas uninhabitable. Using deadly foamal bombs and newly developed vibration weapons, men like Joao Martinho and his co-workers fought to clear the green hell of the Mato Grosso.But somehow those areas which had been completely cleared were becoming reinfested, despite the impenetrable vibration barriers. And tales came out of the jungles . . . of insects mutated to incredible sizes . . . of creatures who seemed to be men, but whose eyes gleamed with the chitinous sheen of insects. . . .A fascinating examination of the fragile balance between consciousness, man and insect from one of the best-loved science fiction creators of all time.
