The scene in this cover painting does occur (though with fewer eyes), but the book itself is not as good as its cover.

The back cover tells you almost everything that happens.

It takes a surprisingly long time to get to the Eyes' demands. As far as invasions of Earth go, this one is rather inept. It's never explained why the Eyes are so lackadaisical in their approach, so I'm assuming that they're just lazy.

In addition to the action described on the back cover, there's also a love story involving a poorly drawn and far from admirable female character. This is more of a shame than usual, since the author of this book is a woman, with a degree in psychology and interests in "American Indian lore, anthropology, philosophy and the arts".
