America is just a police state, and it's going to be confronted by the absolute most hellish adversary on the planet: insects.When the Company unearthed that Dr. Hellstromis Task forty was a cover for a secret lab, an unique group of brokers was instantly sent to find out its genuine objective and its flaws--it couldn't be permitted to proceed. What they found was a headache more terrible and gruesome than actually their weird government thoughts might devise.First published in Galaxy magazine in 1973 as "Task forty," Frank Herbert's vibrant imagination and amazing view of character and ecology haven't been more apparent than in this classic of science-fiction.
