Set in a Britain devastated by a mysterious catastrophe, the novel follows survivors as they struggle to rebuild in a world overrun by gigantic, mutated wasps. These deadly creatures, growing to monstrous sizes due to an unexplained phenomenon, dominate the landscape, making human survival a constant battle. Roberts crafts a tense and harrowing tale of resilience, fear, and the primal fight against an overwhelming force of nature. As civilization collapses, the survivors must navigate not only the threat of the Furies but also the breakdown of society itself. Combining elements of ecological horror, survival fiction, and classic British disaster storytelling, The Furies remains a gripping and unsettling vision of a world turned upside down. Review: ... 70’s as a high school kid its still as good in 2018 - One of a handfull of classic scifi from my childhood that i have deamed worthy of purchasing in e-format read by me in the 70’s as a high school kid its still as good in 2018 Review: The one-two punch... - On the internet there are always debates about how could mankind be taken out? Most agree that it would take two major disasters to bring us down. Because of our machines, our science, our intelligence we could not be taken out by a war or a super-germ...but if two things, two great events happened on top of one another...yes, maybe we would be taken down a few pegs. Well before the internet, well before any of these debates, was The Furies by Keith Roberts. Giant wasps appear about the same time we do something really stupid - nuclear tests crack the Earth's crust like an egg shell. The landscape was changed, cities destroyed and new oceans formed where there were none. Now that mankind is down there comes the kick in the side - the wasps attacks! Where did they come form and why are they here? You see, they seem to be able to think also. And unlike man they don't really need machines - or do they? ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #2,839,056 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #53,395 in Science Fiction (Books) #709,341 in Literature & Fiction (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 39 Reviews | ## Images ![The Furies - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61ZpUVIumYL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Media Language, Media Format** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ... 70’s as a high school kid its still as good in 2018 *by D***N on June 7, 2018* One of a handfull of classic scifi from my childhood that i have deamed worthy of purchasing in e-format read by me in the 70’s as a high school kid its still as good in 2018 ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ The one-two punch... *by M***O on July 18, 2005* On the internet there are always debates about how could mankind be taken out?
