Question: Anybody know of a good book about war/alien fighting!?
Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
The Last World War by Dayton Ward is almost exactly what you are looking for!. Aliens accidentally invade Earth using an wormhole type transporter - and happen across a platoon of National Guardsmen on their 2 week training hitch - that they intended to use against their enemy in a civil war on their homeworld!.

If you aren't adverse to reading some of the Star Wars books, then I would suggest the New Jedi Order series of about 17 books!. In them, an alien species from another galaxy invades the Star Wars galaxy!. This is a species that uses biological technology and has a completely different outlook on life!.

You can also try the Wess'Har series by Karen Traviss, starting with City of Pearl!. I am only up to the second book, but can see that there will soon be a war between several races, including humans, in the upcoming books!.

The Stardoc series by SL Viehl also features an interstellar and inter-species war!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
