In the book series Red Rising, there's a part where one army terrorizes a city by flying over it and dropping all the POWs it captured. Lots of them dropped from low orbit but high enough to take a bit to hit. All nude and alive, hundreds of thousands of soldiers.The character that describes it suggests that the city looks like the windshield of a transport after driving through a bug swarm. It's such a brutal and horrific description of the violence. In a book series that really does a good job at describing violent uprising, that part really painted a vivid scene in my head.
