by Andrew Smith (Author)

MICHAEL L. PRINTZ HONOR BOOK - Intense, complex, and brave, this groundbreaking coming-of-age stunner brilliantly weaves together everything from testicle-dissolving genetically modified corn to the struggles of recession-era, small-town America.

"This raunchy, bizarre, smart and compelling sci-fi novel defies description--it's best to go into it with an open mind and allow yourself to be first drawn in, then blown away."--Rolling Stone

"Nuanced, gross, funny, and poignant, it's wildly original."--The San Francisco Chronicle

In the small town of Ealing, Iowa, Austin and his best friend, Robby, have accidentally unleashed an unstoppable army. An army of horny, hungry, six-foot-tall praying mantises that only want to do two things.

This is the truth. This is history.
It's the end of the world.
And nobody knows anything about it.
