The Uplift War: 3 (The Uplift Saga) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Hostile aliens take an Earth colony hostage in this New York Times–bestselling hard science fiction adventure by the author of Startide Rising.
 
Although they were uplifted and given full sapience, the Bururalli clearly weren’t ready to run a planet, almost wrecking Garth. As a “salvage world,” it was given to despised Earthlings, assigned to reclaim it from the brink. Many senior Galactics--leaders of the Five Galaxies--hoped humanity would fail. But now Garth is peacefully surging back, tended by human and neo-chimpanzee colonists.
 
Meanwhile, enemies desperately seek some way to coerce Earthclan, looking for a possible answer to the secret of the Progenitors. One of them--the Gubru avian race--prepares to invade and hold hostage defenseless Garth. With Earth itself under attack by other militant forces, no relief is coming for the embattled colonists. If they are to survive, they have no choice but to band together, improvise, and learn the tactics of guerilla warfare.
 
This book features a new introduction by the author.
