Arthur Wallace and the MI37 team confront their personal relationships as well as robots created to aid the Nazi's invasion of Russia, leading to a trip for the team to the Himalayas, which takes them to a Nepalese death cult, then back to London for the final assault - amidst assorted relationship break-ups, hangovers and pregnancy scares.
When MI317 - the government department devoted to defending Britain from cosmic horrors and otherwordly threats - comes under attack, Arthur Wallace and his team begin a race from Area 51 to an Arctic town populated entirely by spore zombies to save the world and halt the destruction of humanity.
Oxford police detective Arthur Wallace is a good cop, but prefers that action and heroics remain on the screen, safely performed by professionals. But then secretive government agency MI12 comes calling, hoping to recruit Arthur in their struggle against the tentacled horrors from another dimension known as the Progeny.
Another day, another zombie T-Rex to put down. All part of the routine for Arthur Wallace and MI37 - the government department devoted to defending Britain from threats magical, supernatural, extraterrestrial, and generally odd. But a zombie T-Rex is only the first of Arthur's problems, as Russian cyborg wizards threaten his life...

No auto show is complete without them. They're crowd pulling and invariably extravagant, zany, way-out, and created with no apparent consideration for cost. And, in the eyes of some, taste. But for all the entertainment value of the visually striking concept car, it does, nevertheless, have a serious role to play.For the car manufacturer it provides an invaluable opportunity to gauge the public's reaction to radical design initiatives before putting them into production. With environmental considerations moving increasingly to the fore, the newest generation of aerodynamically honed concepts is also of particular significance for featuring creative alternatives to the long-running internal combustion engine. This usually takes the form of emissions-free electric power which is either used in isolation or in hybrid form, when it works in harmony with miserly fueled gas or diesel units. The concept car is now well over 50 years old, and author Jonathan Wood charts its evolution from General Motors' landmark Y-Job of 1939, through the dream cars of the 1950s, and so to the present day. This highly illustrated book will fascinate car enthusiasts of all ages and provide a pointer to the sort of vehicles that will be on our roads well into the 21st century and beyond.
