Cuckoos lay eggs in other birds' nests. The clutch that was fathered on the quiet little village of Midwich, one night in September, proved to possess a monstrous will of its own. Imt promised to make the human race look as dated as the dinosaur.

Industry Reviews

Midwich, an English village of "utter undistinction" is isolated, immobilized and anesthetized during a "dayout", returns to normal- save for the impregnation of the entire female population- a problem faced with some apprehension but handled with great discretion. The golden-eyed babies, when born, have only this one common characteristic, but soon reveal other behavioral idiosyncrasies and the changeling children become a collective menace to which one man finally proves equal... A fantasy, which is also a fable of sterner implications, handles its evolutionary embarrassment with a disarming humor. (Kirkus Reviews)
