Publisher's Synopsis
They found it frozen in the Antarctic: a shapeshifting alien killer capable of duplicating any being it comes into contact with. Released from its icy prison, The Thing went on a rampage of terror and destruction until one man, MacReady, thought he had destroyed it. He was wrong. He's free of the Antarctic at last, but so is The Thing. Now, in a South American military base, the nightmare begins again, and all humanity is in danger. But how can you kill a monster who could be anyone -- even MacReady?
