THE COMING OF THE BLIGHT
It seemed as though the world was eroding right under everyone's feet. Stories disappeared from magazines; the baron's silver coat of arms, polished in the morning, was pitted with corrosion by afternoon; toadstools were springing up from every corner. And these were but the first signs of the coming plague, a cancerous orgy of patternless vitality seeking to engulf the world...

Once in possession of the coin, Mal found himself on a mysterious quest which led him to discover even stranger things - the girl who spoke the language of another world, the city under the ocean floor, and the deadly little men who followed him. He was in the power of something beyond his understanding, and he meant to find out its source before it put him to its own unfathomable uses.

Harry G. Plover had dumped his armload of trimmed twigs and other rubbish well back into the dark recesses of the jungle edge. Turning, his eye caught by a hint of motion—he checked—over there, in deep gloom. He peered into near-darkness, then scrambled back. His legs seemed to be trapped in an invisible syrup. He fought the rising panic.
“Oh, sure,” Harry said to himself. “I’m having a nightmare—it’ll be over in a moment." But the moment passed...

The House in November (1970)
Invasion! At first the U.S. army - what was left of it - thought it was battling a communist invasion. The truth was much worse. It wasn't until Jeff Mallory awoke one morning to find that all his fellow townsfolk had become sleep walking zombies, and that a tower had been erected in the center of town, a tower that seemed to stretch to the stars, that the horrible truth began to unravel. Earth had been invaded - not by a race of alien conquerors, but by a disease. A disease with a brain...

Who are they? The Russians? An alien race from another planet?
