Hive in the Alpha Centauri fiction Browse Apolyton AD-FREE

I have never read the fictional books on Alpha Centauri. If any of you have, can you tell me about what the Hive is like?

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

Quez-If you are as much of a fan of the Hive as I am, then you will enjoy the books. The first one is basically Spartans vs. PKs. Second is harder to decipher, but the Hive plays a prominent role. Sheng-ji Yang does not dissapoint.

The third book has mixed reviews, but the Hive plays a part in it as well. I really liked book 2 and 3.

Sign me up for book 2. I'm not a big fan of Hive, but I'd be cool to see his social experiment. I'm a fan of Deidre

I'm still waiting for the local library to order in book two and three, they only have book one (the cheapskates).

I'm intrigued by the possibility of a Hive - Gaians alliance that Yang alludes to in the epilogue of Centauri Dawn.

Put an end to popups!

Book 2 is really good. It shows insight on the Hive that I've found to be very interesting.

-No spoilers here-

Appearantly Deirdre was able to give Yang some pleasant 'information for his senses' (running naked through the trees?)
