The Shattering Peace

In "The Shattering Peace," the long-awaited seventh installment of John Scalzi's Old Man's War series, a decade of interstellar peace is threatened by a looming civil war among the Consu, the most advanced alien species humans have encountered. As tensions rise, mid-level diplomat Gretchen Trujillo is thrust into a secret mission that involves key representatives from the Colonial Union, Earth, and the Conclave. This critical situation could either reshape destinies across the galaxy or lead to catastrophic consequences.
