600 YEARS IN THE FUTURE
THE BATTLE FOR EARTH
IS ABOUT TO BEGIN...
The egomaniacal alien Kilrathi have struck again,
savaging a peaceful planet at the edge of space.
And worse, they have captured a NAVCOM device
that will lead them straight to Earth!
Chris Blair and his pal Maniac are “nuggets,” cadets
fresh from the Academy. Their first ship, the Tiger
Claw, has an awesome mission: Recover the
NAVCOM and stop the Kilrathi at all costs,
But Blair's fighting wing - Earth's last hope - is
seething with internal strife. For somewhere along
the thin red line of heroes a traitor lurks!

Around The World

The German language edition, Wing Commander: Das Buch Zum Film, was published by Bastei Lubbe Verlag in 1999. Rather than use a movie screen capture, the German publisher has adopted the Baen-style cover layout (complete with an appropriate piece of slush artwork). It's also worth noting that the movie novel was the fifth Wing Commander book published in Germany (it was the eigth in the United States).
