Contact - Devon C. Ford

. .

Résumé :
Aliens. New worlds. A contact that will shake humanity. The recon ship, the Ichi, made contact with alien beings far from home, making new allies and new enemies. A hastilybuilt fleet makes for the Centauri system, desperate to catch up with the Ichi, and their arrival comes just in time to encounter the almost invisible threat of the war-like alien raceVa'alen. But the fleet soon discovers that what is dominant technology in one solar system is dangerously out of its depth in another. Finding themselves in the middle of an alien conflict, inadvertently picking sides in exchange for advanced technology, the true cost of war is brought home to them in stark reality and loss of life. Leaving Centauri for Earth, and unaware of the scale of power and technology they will need to secure the system and all the resources it holds, Admiral Dassiova's fleet is in deeper water than they can imagine. Continue the epic Expansion series, picking up where Recon ended off. From Devon C Ford, the best-selling author of the hit Post-Apocalyptic series, After It Happened.
