The Will to Battleโthe third book of 2017 John W. Campbell Award winner Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota seriesโa political science fiction epic of extraordinary audacity The long years of near-utopia have come to an abrupt end. Peace and order are now figments of the past. Corruption, deception, and insurgency hum within the once steadfast leadership of the Hives, nations without fixed location. The heartbreaking truth is that for decades, even centuries, the leaders of the great Hives bought the worldโs stability with a trickle of secret murders, mathematically planned. So that no faction could ever dominate. So that the balance held. The Hivesโ faรงade of solidity is the only hope they have for maintaining a semblance of order, for preventing the public from succumbing to the savagery and bloodlust of wars past. But as the great secret becomes more and more widely known, that faรงade is slipping away. Just days earlier, the world was a pinnacle of human civilization. Now everyoneโHives and hiveless, Utopians and sensayers, emperors and the downtrodden, warriors and saintsโscrambles to prepare for the seemingly inevitable war.
