The Fungus

Harry Adam Knight
3.57/5 (583 ratings)
A bizarre plague is sweeping England, spawned by a British scientist's well-intentioned research to end world hunger.

At first, doctors are puzzled when deformed men and women start appearing in hospital emergency rooms. One patient seems covered in thick brown fur; another finds his body sprouting growths like giant toadstools. Soon a pattern emerges from the preliminary data: a man-made microbe is loose, accelerating and amplifying the normal growth of molds and fungi. No one is safe from infection, as microscopic spores carry the plague even into caves deep underground. And those who fall victim to the fantastic range of fungus infections find their minds taken over and their bodies transformed into creatures never before seen on this planet, haunted by dark obsessions and inhuman desires.

As millions fight to escape disease zones and European nations threaten to fight the fungi with nuclear weapons, a team of two men and a woman embark on a suicide mission to penetrate the London laboratory which spawned the plague. Hoping to recover the research notes that may help scientists to synthesize an antidote, they find instead something infinitely more sinister and horrific.
