The first contact with an extraterrestrial civilization turned out to be completely different from what earthlings expected. Strangers came not to speak, but to kill. All states of the Earth are attacked, cities, governments and countries are crumbling. Whole armies die in attempts to destroy the aggressor. Strangers generously spray metavirus in the atmosphere - a biological weapon that changes the genotype of living organisms, turning people and animals into mutants. In the center of the storm, Gleb throws like a sliver on the waves - not a special forces soldier or a hero, but an ordinary guy who in the Altai mountains fell on his head one of the giant invasion ships and who is simply trying to survive in the roaring chaos of the first interplanetary war that suddenly came to Earth. Survive and take revenge.
