Orson Scott Card and Aaron Johnston return to their Ender's Game prequel series with this first volume of an all-new trilogy about the Second Formic War in The Swarm.

The first invasion of Earth was beaten back by a coalition of corporate and international military forces, and the Chinese army. China has been devastated by the Formic's initial efforts to eradicate Earth life forms and prepare the ground for their own settlement. The Scouring of China struck fear into the other nations of the planet; that fear blossomed into drastic action when scientists determined that the single ship that wreaked such damage was merely a scout ship.

There is a mothership out beyond the Solar System's Kuiper Belt, and it's heading into the system, unstoppable by any weapons that Earth can muster.

Earth has been reorganized for defense. There is now a Hegemon, a planetary official responsible for keeping all the formerly warring nations in line. There's a Polemarch, responsible for organizing all the military forces of the planet into the new International Fleet. But there is an enemy within, an enemy as old as human warfare: ambition and politics. Greed and self-interest. Will Bingwen, Mazer Rackam, Victor Delgado and Lem Juke be able to divert those very human enemies in time to create a weapon that can effectively defend humanity in the inexorable Second Formic War?

Luxury-so much luxury
Color: White, Size: Throw-50"x60", Color: White, Size: Throw-50"x60"
Love this blanket. Very warm,thick and heavy,lux fur feels real&soft even after washing(4 washings to date). One side it the fur,the reverse side is a suede-like material that helps it adhere to the bed couch whatever. In between is a thick duvet like filling. The only caveat and it is minor is that the fur is quite slippery. If used as a tire over a couch your guest will be sliding off 😁. Otherwise this throw is a dream. Well worth the money

Perfect

Warm, soft, big and gorgeous. This is exactly the blanket I was looking for to make my club chair look chic while also being useful, not simply decorative.

Shade of color is off a bit….

I ordered two blankets to replace the queen size blanket I had originally, one being a throw blanket for the chase portion of the couch and the larger twin size blanket for the back rest of the couch. PROS: the blankets are beautiful!! They’re soft and luxurious with fluffy fur on one side and a velvety smooth mushroom/sage color on the other side. The sizes work perfectly together giving good coverage for such a large couch. I haven’t had any issues with shedding which was my concern. Washability seems easy enough. I’m gonna have to be careful with the drying process as to not damage the synthetic fibers. CONS: the color…. It’s not what was advertised at all. I ordered the brown/grey. what I got was more of a SANDY TAN/DARK GREY. (They use a color filter on the example photos which doesn’t translate well in person) At first I hated the color but it slowly grew on me! Works well with the rest of the living room decor and gives our space a cozy elegant vibe. I included photos of different times throughout the day to showcase how different lighting affects the color of the fur.

10/10
Color: Browngrey, Size: Queen-80"x80"
Honestly I love this blanket and want to buy a few more. Its thick & warm like it could be real fur. I just don’t know how to wash it but thats a given for faux fur. I bought the queen & it fits perfectly on my bed. I have started using it as a couch cover during the winter and it is very comfortable & soft.
