RESISTANCE: THE GATHERING STORM

Book ID/图书代码: 01240008B24545

English Summary/英文概要: Great Britain. July 1951.

Three years ago, Russia went dark. Nothing got in. Nothing got out. The world assumed it was political strife. But it was the Chimera: voracious extraterrestrial invaders. And in December 1949, they burst across the Russian border and poured into Europe. The luckiest humans died. The less fortunate succumbed to an alien virus–and changed.

Within a year, most of Europe had fallen. Only Great Britain, after struggling desperately, had kept the conquerors at bay. But as the Chimera were repelled, they were evolving. Building. Planning.

America. November 1952.

The Chimera have crossed the Atlantic. Their lightning strikes on American borders are devastating. Cities are lost. Small towns overrun. Citizens transformed into monstrosities. Enter Lieutenant Nathan Hale, U.S. Ranger. A veteran of the Chimeran conflict, he is uniquely immune to the alien virus. And when regular troops can’t stem the Chimeran onslaught, Hale and his special-operations team meet the menace head-on.

But while they battle the relentless Chimera, deadly power games rage in the White House. And when Hale discovers a far-reaching conspiracy, one with deadly consequences for the human race, his allegiance to country and mankind is stretched to the breaking point.

Chinese Summary/中文概要: 1951年7月,英國。

三年前,俄國陷入一片漆黑之中。什麼消息進不來,也出不去。世界上的其他國家都認為俄國發生了政治衝突。但事實上是貪婪的外星侵略者喀邁拉佔領了俄國。1949年的11月,他們就以穿過俄國的邊界線,大舉入侵歐洲。最幸運的人類滅絕了。而不幸的則飽受外來病毒的苦痛,並開始發生變異。
短短一年之中, 大半個歐洲已經淪陷。只有英國在經過苦苦掙扎之後,將侵略者置於困境之中。但是每當喀邁拉被擊退後,他們就會得到一次進化。

1952年11月,美國。

喀邁拉已經越過大西洋。他們在美國邊境發動了具有毀滅性的閃電襲擊。城鎮一座座陷落,居民淪為怪獸。美國陸軍中尉南森.黑爾是對喀邁拉戰鬥中經驗豐富的老兵,而且他是唯一不受外星病毒感染的人類。當美國的正規軍不能抵擋喀邁拉人的猛烈襲擊時,黑爾和他的特戰隊與威脅展開正面交鋒。
但是,當他們和冷酷無情的喀邁拉血戰時,白宮內發生了致命的權力鬥爭。而且當黑爾發現了一個影響更加深遠,並會帶來致命後果的陰謀時,他對國家和人類的忠誠達到了瀕臨終結的境地。(from XMM)
