IF they are smart they will option the 1980 novel "Invader" by Albert F. Hill (North Avenue Irregulars) and David C. Hill (via Jove Pub.) This paperback was fairly smart, not too long, and while obviously based on the video game not slavishly so and with a big twist at the end.
We'll see....
Amazon has a few used copies of Invader for pennies if anyone's interested. Sadly, it's been out of print for years.
