About the Author:
Alan Dean Foster has written many genres, including fantasy, horror, detective, western, historical, and contemporary fiction. He wrote the New York Times bestseller Star Wars: The Approaching Storm, as well as novelizations of several films including Star Wars, the first three Alien films, and Alien Nation. His novel Cyber Way was the first sci-fi book to ever win the Southwest Book Award for Fiction. He lives in Prescott, Arizona with his wife, JoAnn Oxley.
From Publishers Weekly:
In many ways this fantasy adventure seems a follow-up to Foster's novelization of the film Alien. The monsters at loose on an unsuspecting world are grotesque gargoyles, all teeth, claws and malevolence. Standing against them is a small band with varied backgrounds: an FBI agent, a Seattle saleswoman, a wizened Maasai elder and a seven-foot Maasai warrior. The elder has recruited the two Americans to help him contain the evil shetani by closing the entrance to the "Out Of," the Maasai designation for the source of all things, both earthly and demonic. During the long, slow buildup to the final confrontation (itself a letdown), readers are likely to wonder how the protagonists survive any of their encounters with these walking nightmares. Aside from the sudden, memorable bursts of violence and an interesting African travelogue, this is one of Foster's weaker books.

Cover Art: Uncredited (illustrator). 1989 Edition. © 1986: A stand-alone novel by Alan Dean Foster. 1st printing of 1989 edition:- Synopsis: The 'shetani' are many but all are evil. Their shapes and their guises are manifold and all are vile. They exist outside our world and beyond our Time, in the seething void of Out Of, sealed off from our Reality. But now they were invading our world, slithering, violent and monstrous, through a fault line, a fatal weakness in the barrier that divides Out Of and Here and Now. Olkeloki, a wise man of the Maasai people, felt and saw the coming catastrophe. Journeying to America, he had to find the two others who had chosen to come with him on a nightmare journey of earthly adventure and otherworldly terror:- Review(s): The kind of book that makes you lose sleep and be late for appointments" - Roger Zelazny / "A fast-moving adventure with a touch of horror which will appeal to fantasy readers and fans of 'Indiana Jones'" - Liverpool Echo / "Boisterous adventure that's great for a train journey" - Tom Hutchinson, The Times / "The nightmares of the dark continent are loosed upon the contemporary world. This is a monster story with a difference" - Piers Anthony:- (original cost £3.50). Seller Inventory # 12.011.00383
