About the author:

Joanna Russ is one the finest stylists of the last forty years in science fiction. Her stylistic excellences were indeed the
foundation of her reputation in the 1960s and early 1970s, only to be superseded by her reputation as perhaps the
most cutting-edge feminist in SF in the 1970s, the author of The Female Man, "When It Changed," and The Two of
Them. She also wrote critical essays (for which she has received a Florence Howe Award from the Modern Language
Association and later the Pilgrim Award from the Science Fiction Research Association) and reviews (mostly in
Fantasy & Science Fiction) throughout the 1970s; she then fell silent in the mid-1980s.
She has published too little fiction since winning the Hugo award for her novella, "Souls," in 1983. Not even a story
a year. So it is a rare treat to find a stylistic tour-de-force such as "Invasion." It appeared in Asimov's in the same
month (January) as a letter from Russ in the magazine's letter column responding to an editorial. She also published a
substantial collection of her essays, To Write Like a Woman, a Hugo nominee in 1996. We can only hope for more.
This story is pure fun.
