Ender's Shadow explores the stars in this all-new novel... At the end of Shadow of the Giant, Bean flees to the stars with three of his children--the three who share the engineered genes that gave him both hyper-intelligence and a short, cruel physical life. The time dilation granted by the speed of their travel gives Earth's scientists generations to seek a cure, to no avail. In time, they are forgotten--a fading ansible signal speaking of events lost to Earth's history. But the Delphikis are about to make a discovery that will let them save themselves, and perhaps all of humanity in days to come. For there in space before them lies a derelict Formic colony ship. Aboard it, they will find both death and wonders--the life support that is failing on their own ship, room to grow, and labs in which to explore their own genetic anomaly and the mysterious disease that killed the ship's colony.

From the best selling author of DEFCON One comes an explosive new thriller. While Congress debates funding for the Stealth bomber, sinister forces have their own goals in mind. During a training exercise, a B 2 bomber disappears. With no evidence of a crash, the U.S. Air Force acknowledges that one of its' most secret and high tech aircraft has been hijacked. Intelligence leads to what would seem to be a very unlikely suspect: Cuba. Could the tiny nation pull off a theft of this magnitude? And what might its' plans be for the highly sought after aircraft? Finding answers to these questions becomes the top secret mission for CIA agent Steve Wickham. Without those answers, only one solution will remain: invasion. And then World War III will certainly follow. Can Wickham find the bomber before the president is forced to invade? Or will the world as we know it ignite into a nuclear conflagration?
