About this title

About the Author:

Jack Finney (1911–1995) was the author of the much-loved and critically acclaimed novel Time and Again, as well as its sequel, From Time to Time. Best known for his thrillers and science fiction, a number of his books—including Invasion of the Body Snatchers—have been made into movies.

Dean R. Koontz, the author of many #1 New York Times bestsellers, lives with his wife, Gerda, and their dog, Trixie, in southern California.

From AudioFile:

This science fiction classic is expertly narrated by Kristoffer Tabori, who reads the first-person narrative with gritty intensity that will remind listeners of a noir detective novel. And why not? The book was published in 1955 and is the basis of at least three films. It portrays a world whose population is being taken over, person by person, by an alien race. Taboris narration captures the earthiness of the main character, Miles, who is ever smart and practical no matter how strange things get. Tension mounts as people succumb and Miles finds himself more isolated and more desperate to survive. Tabori is interviewed at the end of the audio about the books first film version, which his father directed in 1956. S.D.D.
