Humans are caught up in an alien war with this epic from the #1 NY Times–bestselling writer of Superstar Wars: The Power Awakens and Superstar Trek Into Darkness.

For millennia, the Weave, an alliance of varieties, have fought to resist the telepathic Amplitur, who strive to unite all self-aware life-forms in their great ‘Purpose.’ The Weave is slowly losing surface, but also for both sides, warfare focuses even more on outthinking and outmaneuvering your foe than destruction. Actually, most regard violence as about The Damned Trilogy: A Contact to Arms, The False Reflection, and The Spoils of Battle hideously barbaric, as well as the idea of harming another sentient being can be beyond imagining.

Then they come to Earth .

A Call to Arms

When among its scout ships lands on the planet, the Weave quickly realizes that humanity’s nearly innate capability to wreak havoc and death may hold the essential to turning the tide in their combat. Unfortunately for all those, the Amplitur have the same idea—and mankind is caught in the middle.

The False Mirror

When the Amplitur unleash at the very top cadre of fighters, it soon becomes clear that they have subjected their human prisoners to horrific genetic manipulation. If the Weave tries to undo the effects, they may modify the previous warriors into something much, far worse.

The Spoils of War

With mankind’s help, the Weave is finally over the verge of victory against the Amplitur. Until an alien scholar uncovers a terrifying truth: Earthlings might not even be capable of getting civilized—and a shadowy band of effective humans is already poised to unleash battle across the entire galaxy.
