China has been devastated by the Formic's initial efforts to eradicate Earth life forms and prepare the ground for their own settlement. The Scouring of China struck fear into the other nations of the planet; that fear blossomed into drastic action when scientists determined that the single ship that wreaked such damage was merely a scout ship. <p/>There is a mothership out beyond the Solar System's Kuiper Belt, and it's heading into the system, unstoppable by any weapons that Earth can muster. <p/>Earth has been reorganized for defense. There is now a Hegemon, a planetary official responsible for keeping all the formerly warring nations in line. There's a Polemarch, responsible for organizing all the military forces of the planet into the new International Fleet. But there is an enemy within, an enemy as old as human warfare: ambition and politics. Greed and self-interest. Will Bingwen, Mazer Rackam, Victor Delgado and Lem Juke be able to divert those very human enemies in time to create a weapon that can effectively defend humanity in the inexorable Second Formic War? <p/>THE ENDER UNIVERSE <p/> Ender series<br> <i>Ender's Game </i>/ <i>Speaker for the Dead </i>/ <i>Xenocide </i>/ <i>Children of the Mind </i>/<i> Ender in Exile </i>/ <i>Children of the Fleet</i> <p/> Ender's Shadow series<br> <i>Ender's Shadow </i>/ <i>Shadow of the Hegemon </i>/ <i>Shadow Puppets </i>/ <i>Shadow of the Giant </i>/ <i>Shadows in Flight</i> <p/> The First Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)<br> <i>Earth Unaware </i>/ <i>Earth Afire </i>/ <i>Earth Awakens</i> <p/> The Second Formic War (with Aaron Johnston)<br> <i>The Swarm </i>/ <i>The Hive</i> <p/> Ender novellas<br> <i>A War of Gifts </i>/ <i>First Meetings</i></p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p>ORSON SCOTT CARD is the author of the international bestsellers <i>Shadow of the Giant</i>, <i>Shadow Puppets</i>, <i>Shadow of the Hegemon</i>, and <i>Ender's Shadow</i>, and of the beloved classic of science fiction, <i>Ender's Game</i>, as well as the acclaimed fantasy series The Tales of Alvin Maker.
