Slither by Edward Lee
The trichinosis worm is one of nature's most revolting parasites. Certain types of this tiny worm alter a host's DNA by injecting a virus which mutates the reproductive system. This forces the host to bear the worm's young. Typically these worms are never longer than a few millimeters. But guess what? Now there's a subspecies that's thirty feet long. When Nora and her team arrive at the island, she expects a routine zoological excursion.but it doesn't take her long to realize they're not alone. Are her lurid sexual dreams making her paranoid.or is she being watched? The dead bodies they find are bad enough, but then her own team members begin to disappear, and when they return, they've.changed. Indeed, there are other people on the island.along with something else far worse.
Edward Lee is the author of almost fifty novels and numerous short stories and novellas (or is it novellae? Hmm.) Several of his properties have been optioned for film, while Header was released on DVD in 2009; also, he has been published in Germany, England, Romania, Greece, and Austria. Recent releases include Bullet Through Your Face and Brain Cheese Buffet (story collections), Header 2, and the hardcore Lovecraftian books The Innswich Horror, Trolley No. 1852, Pages Torn From A Travel Journal, Going Monstering, and Haunter of the Threshold. One of Lee's creative ambitions is to one day write an effective M.R. James pastiche. Ryan Harding is the author of Genital Grinder and the co-author of the upcoming novel Reincarnage, as well as a contributor to the multi-author collaboration Sixty-Five Stirrup Iron Road, all from Deadite Press. His stories have also appeared in the anthologies Excitable Boys and In Laymon's Terms, the chapbooks Partners in Chyme (with Edward Lee), A Darker Dawning and A Darker Dawning 2: Reign in Black, and the magazines Splatterpunk and The Magazine of Bizarro Fiction.
