Man-Kzin Wars X cover Man-Kzin Wars X: The Wunder War

Created by Larry Niven

Cover art by Stephen Hickman

Published by Baen Books

In the tenth volume of the Man-Kzin Wars series, Hal Colebatch takes a grim look at just what happened on Wunderland when the feline Kzin came a-conquering. But along with the grimness one also finds hope, in stories of a time afterward, when humans and Kzin have found an accomodation and live together, albeit uneasily.

In the latest volume of the series begun in Foreigner, the combined human-atevi mission to Reunion Station must find a way of defusing a delicate situation.
