Giới thiệu về sách điện tử này
Somebody was testing a planet-killing weapon on Mars¾
and the next target was Earth
Mars is the staging ground. Earth is the target. A storm of invasion gathers as the Red Planet pales and Earth scientists _ amateurs and professionals alike _ race to discover what it portends. Worse news: the horde of self-replicating probes suspected as the cause _ implacable and all-consuming in its own right _ may be only the tip of a full-scale assault.
Ideas ¾ the only useful weapon when facing an adversary an order of magnitude more advanced than you are. But against such an enemy, thought without action is as futile as war-making without a plan. Humanitys hope? The _straddlersÓ: intelligent soldiers who know their science ¾ and fighting scientists who have no scruples about using their smarts to kick some alien butt. Yet even with the right people finally on the job, the hour is late.
For Mars glows red again. And the swarm is nearly upon us!
At the publisher's request, this title is sold without DRM (Digital Rights Management).
Multiple New York Times and USA Today best-seller John Ringo rocks our world as hard as he did with his ground-breaking "Posleen War" series, teaming with NASA and DOD scientist Travis S. Taylor, a specialist in advanced propulsion and space telescopes ¾ and popular author of Warp Speed and The Quantum Connection ¾ to usher in a new saga of invasion, resistance and heroism!
"If Tom Clancy were writing SF, it would read much like John Ringo."
¾Philadelphia Weekly Press on New York Times best-seller John Ringo.
"[S]timulating and satisfying speculation."
¾Publishers Weekly on Travis S. Taylor's The Quantum Connection.
