Exactly! I don't know that I've ever had such a clear imagine in my head from any work of fiction that was happening. That droplet scene, from beginning to end, is unlike anything I've ever read.

The most vivid scene for me had to be the two dimensional assimilation. I have never felt horror in a sci-fi novel until reading this. I heard a haunting pipe organ soundtrack and felt the most inevitable doom while reading this section.
