"Nightmares can come true — sickeningly true."
— Cover Blurb
A sequel to Michael R. Linaker's Scorpion. The killer scorpions are back, but this time they're giant! Aside from the size of the arachnids, it's mostly regarded as a retread of Linaker's earlier novel. Infused with radiation and grown to giant size, the new generation of killer scorpions rampage their way across England as only giant mutated arachnids can.
Tropes used in this novel:
- Big Creepy-Crawlies: Being giant scorpions and all.
- Nuclear Mutant: The back cover describes the now gigantic scorpions as "irradiated, mutant."
- Scary Scorpions: But bigger and scarier!
- Touch of the Monster: The NEL cover makes it seem as if the scorpion is latched onto the screaming woman's chest.
