Tales of Galactic Pest Control
Edited by David Gerrold and Tom Easton
Pests are eternal. But in the future, they're weirder—and a whole lot harder to kill.
From rogue nanobots and alien infestations to genetically modified vermin and psychic parasites, Tales of Galactic Pest Control brings you a collection of smart, sharp, and surprising stories about the unsung heroes of the universe: exterminators.
In this anthology of original tales from a galaxy-spanning lineup of science fiction authors, you'll meet bug-hunters on starships, data scrubbers fighting corrupted AIs, and janitors who clean up after cosmic catastrophes. Some fight for credits. Others for survival. A few may even side with the pests.
Witty, thrilling, and occasionally unsettling, these stories reveal that in the far future, pest control isn't just a dirty job—it might be humanity's last line of defense.
Lock the airlocks. Bring the spray. And remember: the little guys always bite hardest.
