Lieutenant James McCarthy has grown to manhood under the shadow of the terrifying invasion of the Chtorr. As a student, he learned all he could to understand their alien behavior. As a Special Forces commando, he made violent first contact. Now this battle-hardened warrior faces a profound challenge. Captured show more by an anarchistic band of men and women known as renegades, McCarthy must secretly gather vital information while fighting indoctrination into their cult--which serves and worships the Chtorr. show lessTags

The War Against the Chitorr is one of the best works in the genre of military science fiction but it is incomplete. Currently- it ends with book 3. I really wish that David Gerrold would get back to this series as it has interesting characters and a unique premise: the invasion of earth by an alien ecology.
