Ninth City Burning Hardback
For fans of Ender’s Game, Red Rising,and The Hunger Games comes an explosive, epic science fiction debut...Cities vanished, gone in flashes of world-shattering destruction. An alien race had come to make Earth theirs, bringing a power so far beyond human technology it seemed fancy magic. It was nearly the end of the world—until we learned to seize the power, and use it to fight back. The war has raged for five centuries. For a cadet like Jax, one of the few who can harness the enemy’s universe-altering force, that means growing up in an elite military academy, training for battle at the front—and hoping he is ready. For Naomi, young nomad roaming the wilds of a ruined Earth, it means a daily fight for survival against the savage raiders who threaten her caravan. When a just-arrived attack looms, these two young warriors find their paths suddenly intertwined.Print length 496 pagesISBN-10 1101991445
