New York Times bestselling authors Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnston return to the prequels to Ender's Game following The Swarm with The Hive, the second audiobook in the Second Formic War.
Card and Johnston continue the fast-paced hard science fiction history of the Formic Wars—the alien invasions of Earth’s Solar System that ultimately led to Ender Wiggin’s total victory in Ender's Game.
A coalition of Earth’s nations barely fought off the Formics’ first scout ship. Now it’s clear that there’s a mother-ship out on the edge of the system, and the aliens are prepared to take Earth by force. Can Earth’s warring nations and corporations put aside their differences and mount an effective defense?
Ender's Game is one of the most popular and bestselling science fiction titles of all time. The Formic War series (The First Formic War and The Second Formic War) are the prequels to Ender’s story.

Ce que les critiques en disent
“The sections that feature highly intelligent, self-reliant children—Card's trademark—are as excellent as ever... Another solidly engrossing installment, where the aliens are really just a sideshow: What we're witnessing is how and why Ender's child armies came to be.”—Kirkus Reviews on Earth Afire
“While the reader knows who wins the war, the fate of the engaging characters in this story is up in the air. Thirty-five years after he introduced Ender to the world, it's great to see that [Card] is still making magic in this imaginative world.”—New York Journal of Books on Earth Afire

A perfect 2nd act

A random pregnant accountant lady with no relevant qualifications or military credentials effectively takes command of a military vessel on its way to one of the most important missions in human history. She ignores direct orders and repeatedly derails the mission with side quests driven largely by emotion. When the actual military commander is eventually faced with the choice between following his orders and going along with her, he naturally chooses her “brave leadership” apparently regardless of the cost to his career, his life, the lives of his crew, or the mission itself.
There are good reasons why emotion and empathy are not the primary factors in military decision making, particularly when lives and mission critical objectives are at stake. Characters behaving irrationally simply so the story can deliver a particular message doesn’t make them strong or admirable; it makes the writing less believable.
What started as an interesting story ultimately devolved into Disney-style slop.
