Book Description
Four years after the end of the Brood War, Emperor Arcturus Mengsk has rebuilt much of the Terran Dominion and consolidated a new military force despite an ever-present alien threat. Within this boiling cauldron of strife and subversion, a young woman known only as Nova shows the potential to become Mengsk's most lethal and promising "Ghost" operative. Utilizing a combination of pure physical aptitude, innate psychic power, and advanced technology, Nova can strike anywhere with the utmost stealth. Like a phantom in the shadows, she exists only as a myth to the enemies of the Terran Dominion. Yet Nova wasn't born a killer. She was once a privileged child of one of the Old Families of the Terran Confederacy, but her life changed forever when a rebel militia murdered her family. In her grief, Nova unleashed her devastating psychic powers, killing hundreds in a single, terrible moment. Now, on the run through the slums of Tarsonis, she is unable to trust anyone. Pursued by a special agent tasked with hunting down rogue telepaths, Nova must come to terms with both her burgeoning powers and her guilt -- before they consume her and destroy everything in her path....

The explosive novel based on the eagerly anticipated StarCraft II video game expansion, Heart of the Swarm!

The woman who once controlled countless alien minds in a rampage across the stars has been spirited away by the man who dethroned her.

"Betrayed by Tamsen Cauley, the man who let them out of prison, the War Pigs split up and thought to live out their days separately, hiding from friends and foes alike. Two years later they get an offer: if they kill Jim Raynor, Cauley will wipe the War Pigs' slates clean. They know they can't trust him, but sticking together offers a slim chance of survival now that they've been found. And the Dominion may hate Raynor, but that doesn't make him a hero-- does it?"--Jacket
