Overgrowth

Overgrowth by Mira Grant, published by Tor Publishing Group on May 6, 2025, is a 480-page work in English that explores themes of alien invasion and body horror. The narrative centers on Anastasia Miller, who has long claimed to be an alien in human form, awaiting the arrival of her biological family from space. As an alien signal begins to broadcast globally, humanity faces the reality of an impending invasion, raising questions about belief, awareness, and the consequences of ignoring warnings.

Readers will find a blend of horror and science fiction as the story unfolds, delving into the psychological and societal implications of an alien presence on Earth. The plot examines the tension between knowledge and denial, particularly as Stasia’s claims gain urgency in light of the approaching armada. With elements reminiscent of classic works like Day of the Triffids and Invasion of the Body Snatchers, this edition presents a unique take on the genre, inviting readers to confront the unsettling possibilities of first contact and the nature of identity.
