About this listen

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.

A truly suspenseful and thrilling tale with imagery that will resonate with me probably for the rest of my life. Just as Earth Afire was my favorite of the first trilogy, it's going to be hard to beat The Hive, fantastic novel.

Never disappointed, except that there isn't a tv show based off the books. I can't get enough of OSC's tactical reasoning.

Another Enderverse Masterpiece

I loved the book. my only problem was with the often whiney tone of every child in the book. these genius children constantly sound like five year olds throwing tantrums because they want more juice.

Voice acting wasn't that great.
