The sequel to "The Lives of Tao." The Prophus and the Genjix are at war. For centuries they have sought a way off-planet, guiding humanity's social and technological development to the stage where space travel is possible. The end is now in sight, and both factions have plans to leave the Earth, but the Genjix method will mean the destruction of the human race. That's a price they're willing to pay. It's up to Roen and Tao to save the world. Oh, dear..."File Under" Science Fiction [ Manning Up - A Long Journey - Bye-Bye Mankind - Personal Space ]

Picks up years after the 1st book & alternates between characters on both sides of the war between alien factions. It‘s a lot more outright warfare in this book, and again the ending made me super angry. I though the relationship between the aliens and their hosts was much better described & explored.
Tao and his allies must stop the slaughter of their people, and maybe global warming & war.
2/5 stars, I won‘t read the next book in the series.

Such a fun read! Science fiction, alternative history, and political thriller all in one story. Part two of a trilogy. I'm already looking forward to reading part three.

First I thought, Seriously Wesley Chu? Then I thought, Of course! Paula! And then, What else might be in there?

My current read. I took issue with some of the history interpretations in The Lives of Tao but not bad enough for me to not want to pick up this one. Good read so far.
