About this listen
The Leech
By Robert Sheckley
Narrated by Andre Baum
A visitor should be fed, but this one could eat you out of house and home ... literally!
The Leech was waiting for food. For millennia it had been drifting, without consciousness, across the vast emptiness of space.
A planet claimed it, with other stellar debris, and the leech fell, still dead—seeming within its tough spore case.
One speck of dust among many, fell to the Earth.
Nourishment soaked in, permeating the spore case. It grew—and began to feed.
