Le temps que vous lisiez ces lignes, sept cents millions de fourmis seront nées sur la planète. Sept cents millions d'individus dans une communauté estimée un milliard de milliards, et qui a ses villes, sa hiérarchie, ses colonies, son langage, sa production industrielle, ses esclaves, ses
mercenaires... Ses armes aussi. Terriblement destructrices.
Lorsqu'il entre dans la cave de la maison léguée par un vieil oncle entomologiste, Jonathan Wells est loin de se douter qu'il va à leur rencontre.
À sa suite, nous allons découvrir le monde fabuleusement riche, monstrueux et fascinant de ces « infraterrestres », au fil d'un thriller unique en son genre, où le suspense et l'horreur reposent à chaque page sur les données scientifiques les plus rigourcuses.
Voici pour la première fois un roman dont les héros sont des… fourmis !

Work Description
'Les Fourmis' is the first novel in a science-fiction trilogy written by the writer and entomologist Bernard Werber. It was released in 1991 and was entitled 'Empire of the Ants' in the English translation. It follows two parallel stories; one describes the events in the life of a male formica rufa ant in a colony in a Paris park, while the other follows a human character, who investigates the cellar of a house recently bequeathed to him by a mysterious uncle. He does not return from the cellar, and nor do friends and family who follow him.
The characteristics of the ants (such as their intelligence and level of communication) are based on scientific research, but are significantly exaggerated.
