• It's up to a famous rapper, a biologist, and a rogue soldier to handle humanity's first contact with an alien ambassador--and prevent mass extinction--in this novel that blends magical realism with high-stakes action.
• After word gets out on the Internet that aliens have landed in the waters outside of the world's fifth most populous city, chaos ensues.
• Soon the military, religious leaders, thieves, and crackpots are trying to control the message on YouTube and on the streets.
• Meanwhile, the earth's political superpowers are considering a preemptive nuclear launch to eradicate the intruders.
• All that stands between seventeen million anarchic residents and death is an alien ambassador, a biologist, a rapper, a soldier, and a myth that may be the size of a giant spider, or a god revealed.
