As the war between Earth and Mars heats up, threatening the potential destruction of both parties, Alex Smith and his Martian friend, Big Guy, are caught right in the middle–between the humans and the aliens, between various factions of their own people, between the inherent difficulty of establishing communication between two such dissimilar intelligences. Unless Alex can find some way of bridging the gulf between the worlds, both sides will be left vulnerable to the threat posed by a third, much more dangerous alien race that's targeting both worlds. The stunning conclusion to the War of Two Worlds Trilogy!

Twelve years after the events of Invasion!, Earth prepares to retaliate by mounting an expedition against the Martians. With great difficulty, our Space Force establishes bases on the two Martian moons, and also on the surface of the Red Planet. But a series of firefights demonstrate that the aliens hold the upper hand, and that communication between the species is the only thing that will keep our bases from being exterminated. Alex Smith once again must step forward, and offer himself as part-prisoner, guest, interpreter, guinea pig, negotiator, and–ultimately–the last, best hope of mankind. But finding any consistent and understandable method of communication with a truly alien race is almost impossible. Can the gulf be breached in time? War of Two Worlds, Book Two.
