The Will To Battle: Book 3 Of Terra Ignota (Terra Ignota, 3)

The Will to Battleùthe third book of 2017 John W. Campbell Award winner Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota seriesùa political science fiction epic of extraordinary audacity ôA cornucopia of dazzling, sharp ideas set in rich, wry prose that rewards rumination with layers of delight. Provocative, erudite, inventive, resplendent.ö ùKen Liu, author of The Grace of Kings The long years of near-utopia have come to an abrupt end. Peace and order are now figments of the past. Corruption, deception, and insurgency hum within the once steadfast leadership of the Hives, nations without fixed location. The heartbreaking truth is that for decades, even centuries, the leaders of the great Hives bought the worldÆs stability with a trickle of secret murders, mathematically planned. So that no faction could ever dominate. So that the balance held. The HivesÆ fa?ade of solidity is the only hope they have for maintaining a semblance of order, for preventing the public from succumbing to the savagery and bloodlust of wars past. But as the great secret becomes more and more widely known, that fa?ade is slipping away. Just days earlier, the world was a pinnacle of human civilization. Now everyoneùHives and hiveless, Utopians and sensayers, emperors and the downtrodden, warriors and saintsùscrambles to prepare for the seemingly inevitable war. ôSeven Surrenders veers expertly between love, murder, mayhem, parenthood, theology, and high politics. I haven't had this much fun with a book in a long time.ö ùMax Gladstone, author of Three Parts Dead Terra Ignota Series 1. Too Like the Lightning 2. Seven Surrenders 3. The Will to Battle
