When the seeds rained down from deep space, it may have been the first stage of an alien invasion—or something else entirely. How much time do we have left, and do we even understand what timescale to use? As a slow apocalypse blooms across the Earth, planets and plants, animals and microbes, all live and die and evolve at different scales. Is one human life long enough to unravel the mystery? Nine Last Days on Planet Earth is a Tor.com Original from the award-winning science fiction author Daryl Gregory. At the Publisher's request, this title is being sold without Digital Rights Management Software (DRM) applied.
