 The explosive sequel to Neil Hunter's Scorpion novel! Nature Gone Wild!

The colony of deadly scorpions at Long Point Nuclear Plant that killed scores of locals was eradicated. Or so people thought...

Over a year later, entomologist Miles Ranleigh receives a worrying telephone call. A man has been fatally poisoned by toxic venom, identical to the Long Point scorpions’ — but far more powerful. Miles and his companion Jill Ansty must race to destroy the fresh infestation. But this is a new strain of scorpion. Mutated and irradiated. They’re larger, more savage—and infected with a deadly virus fatal to humans. And they’re breeding... Clásicos Género Ficción Horror

This review reflects both this story and the original

Now that being said I did get these for free, so some leeway is given.

The story is pretty run of the mill, it reminds me of The Rats series with much the same premise. However the characters are far less compelling partly because of the voice (which I will get into) and their behavior. Both main characters in both stories follows the trope of a random love Interest, though I think the first books was more organic while this one they just kinda stumble Into each other and start sucking face after some quips.

A personal pet peeve that drove me nuts was how the scorpions were constantly referred to as insects, even by the professionals despite being arachnids. They are described as laying eggs, despite scorpions give live birth. and they have teeth. You could chalk that all up to bring a mutation, but no, it's just assumed that's normal even when the professionals look them over.

Despite this the books name off a lot of true scorpion facts which leaves me in this confused state of thinking the writers were purposely trying to rile up the folks who would know this.


worst of the worst Is the voice. it's AI, and while you could kinda make it work in the right setting, this was not it. The books take place in England and scottland and even by the dialog you can tell there is supposed to be accents for a lot of the people, but it's all done in the same bland tone. And you can't tell characters apart make or female unless it's made clear by the book itself.


All and all cool concept but a painful read. It might be worth it if you get it free, and you really need something going on as you work. But for the love of all things holy don't pay for it.

Their not insects!
