In the long-awaited sequel to In Death Ground, the Grand Alliance of Humans, Orions, Ophiuchi, and Gorm continue their galactic battle against the Arachnids--a carnivorous legion of insects that regard any competing sentient species as a food source.

With billions of civilians already slaughtered and their armed forces ravaged beyond repair, the Grand Alliance may be forced to their last resort--the devastating Shiva Option.

The 'bugs' have overrun planet after planet and they regard all sentient species as convenient protein sources. The Grand Alliance of Humans has been driven to the wall. When the only possible outcomes are victory or racial extermination, only one option is acceptable - The Shiva Option.

Reviews for The Shiva Option (#4 Starfire)

Fans of space opera who have been eagerly awaiting this sequel to Weber and White's In Death Ground won't be disappointed, to put it mildly . . . all the verisimilitude of a technothriller . . . characterizations are strong and vivid . . . leaving the reader both exhilarated and enriched. Swift action and conflict mark this alien/human drama. . . . this novel and its predecessors more than fill the bill in the military SF subgenre. Weber and White...[leave] the reader both exhilarated and enriched.
