Next Item: (3389) Greener Than You Think (Librivox) by Ward Moore

Summary from Librivox:

Do remember reading a panic-mongering news story a while back about genetically engineered Frankengrass escaping from the golf course where it had been planted? That news story was foreshadowed decades previously in the form of prophetic fiction wherein a pushy salesman, a cash-strapped scientist, and a clump of crabgrass accidentally merge forces with apocalyptic consequences. A triple-genre combo of science fiction, horror, and satire, Greener Than You Think is a forgotten classic that resonates beautifully with modern times.

This is a faithful reading of a 1947 first edition text. (Summary by Lee Elliot)

Approx running time: 14 hrs, 08 mins plus music interlude:
