Publisher's Synopsis

'A standout tale of SF adventure that gives Ender series fans fascinating backstory to the classic Ender's Game' Library Journal on Earth Unaware

THE FUTURE OF HUMANITY HANGS IN THE BALANCE

One hundred years before Ender's Game, the aliens arrived on Earth with fire and death. This is the story of the First Formic War.

Victor Delgado beat the alien ship to Earth, but just barely. Not soon enough to convince sceptical governments that there was a threat. They didn't believe that until space stations and ships and colonies went up in sudden flame.

And when that happened, only Mazer Rackham and the Mobile Operations Police could move fast enough to meet the threat . . .

Following Earth Unaware comes this thrilling second novel in the First Formic War - a space adventure series set in the world of bestselling science fiction classic Ender's Game
