The Colony War · Book Two In The Rosnut Series

The planet that the two shuttles - one containing Marines the other scientists - had landed on could have been Earth, yet it was light years from Earth.

Rich in flora and fauna it should have been a haven for wildlife. Not only was there no intelligent species, there was seemingly no life at all.

What horror - or horrors – that stalk the planet had caused this? Quick actions by the highly intelligent, totally unpredictable Rosnuts, prevented the same fate befalling the two groups. That single incident resulted in an unparalleled conflict, between Earth and a species to which brutality was the norm.

The first tentative steps into space will be the last for Earth unless they can overcome an alien race that has ruled over an empire of planets for almost a million years.
