The Human Division
Lieutenant Harry Wilson counters hostile alien forces, angry humans, and unpredictable elements from the universe in order to protect the interests of the Colonial Union.
From New York Times bestselling author John Scalzi, The Human Division is released for the first time in trade paperback with a new introduction by the author.
The people of Earth now know that the human Colonial Union has kept them ignorant of the dangerous universe around them. For generations, the CU had defended humanity against hostile aliens, deliberately keeping Earth an ignorant backwater and a source of military recruits.
Now the CU's secrets are known to all. Other alien races have come on the scene and formed a new allianceβan alliance against the Colonial Union. And they've invited the people of Earth to join them. For a shaken and betrayed Earth, the choice isn't obvious or easy.
Against such possibilities, managing the survival of the Colonial Union won't be easy, either. It will take diplomatic finesse, political cunningβ¦and a brilliant "B Team," centred on the resourceful Lieutenant Harry Wilson, that can be deployed to deal with the unpredictable and unexpected things the universe throws at you when you're struggling to preserve the unity of the human race.
