About This Item
New York, NY, U.S.A.: Baen Enterprises, 1984. Mass Market Paperback. Near Fine. First Edition. 12mo - over 6¾" - 7¾" tall. The Horde is a hyper-advanced, voracious alien race whose constant hunt for food forces them to rove the universe. Annihilating everything before it, the horde of monstrous space travellers were advancing through the stars. And Earth lay in their route. To defend their home planets, the worlds that lay in the path of the monsters created a super defense force, asking each planet to contribute one especially talented warrior. Now they are approaching the Milky Way, and humanity's one hope is Miles Vander, the only human soldier in a hastily assembled galactic force. But Miles had more than the Horde to fight. First he had to convince his alien crewmembers that he was just as good as a soldier as they. 254 pages. Some rubbing on top & bottom & edges of spine and some places on outside edges. Spine is creased. A light 3" crease on front cover next to right edge..
