It takes one encounter to turn peace into war . . .

The worlds of the Polity stretch from Earth Central into the unfathomable reaches of the galactic void. And when humanity finally encounters alien life - in the form of massive, hostile carnivores known as the Prador - there can only be one outcome. Total warfare.

Chaos reigns as, caught unawares, the Polity struggles to regain control. It must try to remake itself into a military society as starships clash, planets fall and space stations are overrun. But for Jebel Krong and Moria Salem, trapped at the centre of the action, this war is far more than a clash of cultures or technology versus brute force. This war is personal.

'Punchy . . . Prador Moon is not black and white: the whites are shades of grey and the blacks are midnight dark'

'Fabulously horrible aliens, brilliant AIs and courageous humans. It's chock full of action'
