They're finally here...

 

Remember those dour aliens from 1950s sci-fi flicks? They've had a makeover, and now they're back in SECOND COMING, a hilarious novel by D.B. Borton, author of the Cat Caliban and Gilda Liberty series. Taking aim at consumerism, the cult of celebrity, and the self-destructiveness of humanity, it nonetheless finds joy in the pleasures of basketball, dogs, and rock ‘n’ roll.
