Brilliant cover pics! Great monsters!
I would advise stilts for the quagmires, and camels for the snowy hills
And any survivors, their debts I will certainly pay. There's always a way!

When I saw the title of this thread, I thought you were referring to the new film, Iron Sky, which is about the Earth being invaded by Nazis from the Moon!

See the link above for the film's trailer, it looks great!

IronSky: can't wait to see. Not really expecting to be blown away, but I quite like the new way of 'doing' film, not hollywood.

The link, wow, last one by John Brunner, of 'The Sheep Look Up' http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sheep_Look_Up

(That was quite the dystopian too-close-for-comfort novel to read as a young-un. )
