Synopsis and tagline for Tuskers II.


Tuskers II is scheduled for May. 

The cover is being done by Mike Corley again, and they wanted a tagline to match, "The Pigs Are Not All Right." (Somehow this tagline, which Andy Zeigert came up with, was perfect.)

I came up with: "Stay Out Of The Desert."

The following is the back page synopsis.  Any and all suggestions at improving it are appreciated.

"Barry and Jenny have inherited a fortune, with a single stipulation: that they hunt down and eradicate the Tuskers.  They can only hope the Tuskers are gone. They aren't sure they can follow through on the genocide of an entire new species.

Genghis, the smartest and most ruthless of the Tuskers, survives.  Deep in the desert, he breeds with the wild pig population.  These mutants learn from humans, and quickly surpass them.  

Next time, mankind won't be so lucky."
