More About This Book

Overview

Possessed of an unnatural and legendary hunger, the Reapers have come to Earth to establish a New Order built on the harvesting of enslaved human souls. They rule the planet. They thrive on the scent of fear. And if it is night, as sure as darkness, they will come.

It is the forty-fifth year of the Kurian Order. Lt. David Valentine is a proud member of the Wolves, an elite fighting force dedicated to regaining control of Earth. But a disastrous battle against the enemy has left more than half of his company wounded or dead — and Valentine facing a court-martial.

Resigning his position, Valentine accepts an offer to become a Cat, one of the stealthy warriors trained to spy on — and go toe-to-toe against — the Reapers. Under the command of his mentor, Smoke, Val’s first mission is to enter the Kurian Zone and investigate the threat of the Twisted Cross, a strike force of alien-human hybrids possessing the skills of combat veterans and the hunger of the Reapers....

Editorial Reviews

From Barnes & Noble
The Barnes & Noble Review
Choice of the Cat, the sequel to E. E. Knight's debut novel, Way of the Wolf, continues his Vampire Earth saga, in which alien overlords have conquered Earth and are hungrily harvesting human souls. Standing in their way are pockets of resistance that have vowed to fight back against impossible odds to reclaim the planet.

Lieutenant David Valentine is a member of the Wolves, an elite regiment proficient in tracking down and killing the enemy Kur and their minions of vampiric Reapers and troll-like Grogs. But when a battle with the enemy goes horribly wrong and Valentine is unjustly threatened with a court-martial, he's forced to resign his position with the Wolves. Fate intervenes, and he is offered a position as a Cat, a select stealth warrior who usually works alone and is sent into the most dangerous situations. Together with the deadly (and beautiful) Smoke, a female Cat, Valentine is sent on a mission across the Great Plains Gulag to find out why enemy soldiers are wearing the symbol of the Twisted Cross. Fans of postapocalyptic fiction should thoroughly enjoy this captivating and highly original series. While not on the same level of scope and profundity as classics like L. Ron Hubbard's Battlefield Earth and Lucifer's Hammer by Larry Niven and Jerry Pournelle, the Vampire Earth saga is a military science fiction/horror thriller comparable to John Ringo's Legacy of the Aldenata sequence (A Hymn Before Battle, Gust Front, When the Devil Dances, et al.) and Harry Turtledove's Worldwar saga. Paul Goat Allen

    Better than first one

    This book is so much better than the first one and the first one was completely awesome. I was very engaged in it. I would buy these up as fast as I could, but I dont have the money. I highly sugest everyone reads it, whether you love science fiction, fiction, action, romantic style books, or nomfiction books, this book has it all and more. Also a very intruiging plot and characters. I couldnt put it down.

    Incredible

    I had had my doubts about the book at first, and after buying it I had waited a couple weeks before reading it. What a fool I was, the book picked up really fast, great action, great humor, great... everything. I loved how Valentine changed the lives of the people he met along his way, whether that be saving them from death, or causing it.

    Very entertaining science fiction novel

    It has been forty-five years since the Kurians invaded Earth. The world as it once was no longer exists as mankind devolved into a medieval age because machinery for the most part no longer exists. The Kurians are safely ensconced in their fiefdoms all over the world sending Reapers to feed on human essences that are sent back to them. There remains packets of human resistance, assisted by the Lifeweavers who were the losers in their war with the Kur............................... David Valentine is a wolf with enhanced senses given to him by the Lifeweavers and he and his wolf pack fight the minions of the Reapers whenever they can. During a vicious firefight, David takes charge of the battle, but later is forced to resign for the decisions he made. The Cats, solo operatives working inside the Kurian zones, recruit him. His first assignment is to find out about the Twisted Cross, an elite fighting force of Reaper that have some of the characteristics of man. He and his fellow Cat companion Smoke must finding a way of learning their enemies¿ secrets if they want to have a chance of winning the war.......................................... Fans of apocalyptic thrillers will want to read the second installment in the ¿Vampire Earth¿ series. The reapers are an unusual kind of vampire who suck the part of their victims to inhale their life energy and then relay it back to their master, a Kirian. The hero of this book is a warrior who kills the enemy without a second thought yet is still able to save the victims of the aliens. E.E. Knight has written a memorable and very entertaining science fiction novel.............................. Harriet Klausner
