Review "Orson Scott Card has apparently swallowed science fiction whole." --The New York Times "One of the greats of contemporary science fiction and fantasy." --The Wall Street Journal "Orson Scott Card is as fine a writer as we have." --The Los Angeles Times "[Orson Scott] Card is a writer of compassion." --The Washington Post "The best writer science fiction has to offer." --The Houston Post "Card is a master storyteller." --The Seattle Times Review Quote Praise for The Hive "Solid."-- Deseret News Praise for Earth Afire "The sections that feature highly intelligent, self-reliant children--Cards trademark--are as excellent as ever... Another solidly engrossing installment, where the aliens are really just a sideshow: What were witnessing is how and why Enders child armies came to be."-- Kirkus Reviews "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, its great to see that [Card] is still making magic in this imaginative world."-- New York Journal of Books Details ISBN0765375656 Year 2020 ISBN-10 0765375656 ISBN-13 9780765375650 Format Paperback Short Title The Hive Pages 464 Series The Second Formic War Language English Subtitle Book 2 of the Second Formic War Series Number 2 UK Release Date 2020-04-28 DEWEY 813.54 Audience General Author Orson Scott Card Publication Date 2020-04-28 Publisher Tor Books Imprint Tor Books We've got this At The Nile, if you're looking for it, we've got it.
