It was released on June 11, 2019.[1] It is the sequel to The Swarm and will be followed by a novel titled The Queens.[2] PlotIn 'The Swarm', the Formic's initial efforts to eradicate Earth life forms were beaten back by a coalition of corporate and international military forces, and the Chinese army, with notable efforts by Bingwen, Mazer Rackham, Victor Delgado and Lem Jukes. The devastation of China associated with this led to the reorganization of Earth's government for defense of the human species. In 'The Hive', the series' main characters face the forces of nationalism, tribalism, paranoia, egotism, jealousy, and self-aggrandizement that threaten to tear apart Earth's new defense forces from within. Meanwhile, they must battle the ever growing forces of the Formics and attempt to locate and destroy the Hive Queen. See alsoReferences
