Earth Unaware by Orson Scott Card

[fitzthegreat]

Aliens, war, teens, and family. Today we are a world full of teen heroes fighting another "grouping" of people or alien in nature (aliens, zombies, etc.). Author of the classic, Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card delivers a stellar product with his prequel to the widely popular novel. Earth Unaware finds its place amongst a mining family aboard a ship. The ship is out in the Kuiper belt, an asteroid filled wasteland. However, waste might not be fitting for these individuals, it's their only source of income. Now, let's step back to Ender's Game. Have you ever found yourself wondering, how did the alien war start? Well, Earth Unaware is bound to offer that answer and leave you hanging for more by the completion of the novel. Card delivers a stellar performance once again with his philosophical but vastly fast paced prequel. I highly recommend a read if you are interested in a.) science fiction, b.) aliens, and c.) good reading material. It's a quick read, but it will leave you hanging. Lucky for you...the sequel, Earth Afire was released earlier this year for your dire needs of a sequel. Check it out!
