They Tried to Starve Us, We Just Changed the Menu | A Sci-Fi War Story

The [Krell Imperium] wages a clean, logical war. They do not use bombs. They use the [Nul-Blight], a perfect bio-weapon that erases a planet's primary food source. They unleash it on Earth, destroying all wheat, rice, and corn, and then [High-Provisioner V’rak] settles in for the 90-day siege, waiting for humanity's inevitable, starving surrender.

He has made a catastrophic, species-ending mistake. He has assumed, logically, that humans are specialized eaters like his own kind. He did not account for a species that is pathologically omnivorous. He did not account for [Dr. Eva Rostova], who discovers the blight accidentally fertilized every other plant on Earth. And he certainly did not account for [Elias Thorne], a high-end chef turned apocalyptic prophet, who begins a radio broadcast teaching a broken world the one thing it's forgotten: how to scavenge.

Follow the [Scavenger's Crusade] as:

[Elias Thorne]'s "Scavenger's Gospel" teaches millions to eat dandelions, amaranth, fungi, and insects.

The Krell watch in dawning horror as their "starving" enemy becomes more nourished on a diet of "super-weeds."

Humanity's [Scavenger Corps] wages a brutal, asymmetrical war against the Krell's invading [Purification Fleet].

Elias and Eva develop the ultimate biological counter-weapon: a hyper-aggressive [Koji] mold to infect and destroy the Krell's own food supply.

The Krell learn that you cannot win a war of logistics against a creature that sees the entire planet as a pantry.

"The Scavenger's Crusade" is a classic HFY epic celebrating humanity's most underestimated and unglamorous superpower: our stubborn, resilient, and all-consuming appetite. If you love stories of creative survival, asymmetrical warfare, and humanity's refusal to ever give up, this is for you!
