It’s like the force field thing in FUCK I forget the name of the movie. The one with the trees or whatever that get spliced with human HOX genes, and the weird fractal alien, and the weird fucking ending.

But also the word annihilation is cool.

You'll love the rest of the novels then, their titles are excellent. Annihilation, Authority, then Acceptance.

There's supposed to be a 4th book coming this year iirc. New characters

Reminds me of Threshold, an I think it was CBS creepy scifi series that ended too soon; it was supposed to be followed by Foothold and Stranglehold. The name of the first two episodes, Trees Made of Glass, has stuck with me.

The show had this creepiness to it that was pretty cool.

Oh god, reading through the episode synopses and it reminds me of this insane ass novel, Three Hundred Million by Blake Butler.

The fractal 4D alien thing was stupid.
