When the beautiful invaders took over, only Texas fought back! A "different" science fiction novel by award-winning author Richard Wilson. Originally published in 1955, this is a science fiction romp that pokes fun at the B-Movie notion of beautiful alien invaders.

Richard Wilson (1920–1987) was a Nebula Award winning American science fiction writer and fan. He was a member of the Futurians (alongside such notables as Isaac Asimov, Donald A. Wollheim, and C. M. Kornbluth). His books included the novels The Girls from Planet 5 (1955); 30-Day Wonder (1960); and And Then the Town Took Off (1960); and the collections Those Idiots from Earth (1957) and Time Out for Tomorrow (1962). His short stories included The Eight Billion (nominated for a Nebula Award as Best Short Story in 1965); Mother to the World (nominated for the Hugo for Best Novelette in 1969 and winner of the Nebula in 1968); and The Story Writer (nominated for the Nebula Award for Best Novella in 1979).
