Invasion While they were able to find one of the triangle portals something tells me that there are more portals that they just simpley don't know about.

I would have to agree with the above poster. I would expect the next book to be about another rash of infections.... maybe in another country. This time the entire village or city becomes Infected, thus it would be quite dangerous to be walking around with all those enraged psychotic types on the loose. Ultimately, I see the story turning into a mass full scale war between the Qi and us as they finally get a portal established, but heck that is just my guess.

A village of people at the same stage of Infection ... that sounds like a disaster waiting to happen. Would they turn on each other? Would their Triangles force them into a coherent unit? Would the Hatchlings be at the mercy of the nonInfected or recently Infected?

Don't you guys remember something being said about a ship or satellite orbiting in space that sent the spores down to earth.

i really dont know but if its as good as the first one i dont mind

Was it a space ship orbiting, or something released far away that survived the interstellar trip? ------- Whole Lot of Nonsense PodCast - http://www.wholelotofnonsense.org UUCSH Sunday Services - http://uucsh.libsyn.com Follow Me - http://www.twitter.com/bpende Pownce on Me - http://www.pownce.com/bpende

Maybe the president could get infected! TAKE THAT NEPTHE CHARGE!!!!!!

perry dawsey should kill a Ki with a steak knife and a pair of chicken scissors. I think scott should be killed by getting gutted by an infected nutjob aswell.

Possibly a future destroyed earth?? One infected with triangles? Triangles that form a conscious, conscious smart enough to build a portal, a portal to a distant planet, a planet infected by more triangles, triangles embedded in another race of more violent Ki?? Ki on Earth! Ki join a football team and play for the SF 49ers! _____ Eric

I thought I read/heard/dreamed somewhere that the next book was going to be Infested, then the 3rd was Contagious (which I wasn't fond of how confusing the 2nd book name sounded), but now it looks like it'll be Contagious and Pandemic.... Either way, there appears to be a building to a world-wide (or galaxy-wide) episode of some sort. The Ki had originally sent out the triangles and when hosts were found on Earth, they made their way towards us for when the portals would be opened by the eyes. Just because we closed off the Adrian portal doesn't mean that the Ki are calling it quits and going home. Because maybe Earth IS home.... I think in the next book, Perry will be working for the government to track down and isolate pockets of contagion as we learn more about what the Linemen want with Earth. Special Agent Dawsey will attempt to have his junk reattached, but the operation will not be successful. Dawsey and his group will make some discoveries on how the portals are formed, but the Ki have some other tricks up their sleeves. Bigger and badder than a few triangles that take weeks to get their job done. And whatever it is, it better be deadly. I'm sick and tired of people surviving. Ya hear me, Sig? I'm sick of .....

I'm still wondering what a Sigler sequel is like... after all, part of the magic of Infection and Earthcore (and Ancestor to some extent) was not knowing what was going on. By the time the sequels come around, the suspense should be somewhat lessened. But I'm sure Sigler will find a way. This is never an issue with JC Hutchins... EVERY chapter keeps you in suspense.

Sigler-lightning didn't strike you for that one? I have to agree that Hutch does seem to be the king of the cliffhanger. ------- Whole Lot of Nonsense PodCast - http://www.wholelotofnonsense.org UUCSH Sunday Services - http://uucsh.libsyn.com Follow Me - http://www.twitter.com/bpende Pownce on Me - http://www.pownce.com/bpende

it just glanced my leg. I'm expected to make a full recovery.

The Irishman from Ohio"I never Get to Get it!"-Wacko Warner Just my opinion...the H guy is more predictable for me than Sigler Godd. On the other hand, the only work by this H person, I have listened too/read was Seventh Son. Except when the Marine clone was involved, I called the rest of the story. Just my opinion.

Satch,

I realize you're hear to push your Pro-Hutch agenda, but come on. You don't know "what's going on" with 7th Son sequels? Well, there's some clones, you see, and they are going to get shot at, and some of them will die. So you're saying that keeps you in suspense, but the sequel to EARTHCORE, ANCESTOR and INFECTED won't, because you "know" what the story is about? That doesn't even make any sense.

Dude, just wear your Beta Clone shirt with pride and be up-front an honest about it. You know, the one that says on the back "I'm out to position Hutch as better than Sigler." 

Im hoping for a full scale world war with the KI...As for hutch well I love the big lug and IM REALLY LOOKING FORWARD to more stuff outta him but as of right now J.C. is a one trick pony, Scotts more like a several trick pony ;)

Not a big picture guy are ya? I think Scott's pulling a Steven King and tying his "Siglerverse" together....Remember the portal full of KI warriors? hmmmmm....

more violent Ki? now thats scary! They already eat their dinner alive!

I'm definitely looking forward to seeing the timeline between Infection and the Rookie get filled in. In defense of H, I have got to say that I like his work and I like Siggie's work. They each play well in their sandboxes. ------- Whole Lot of Nonsense PodCast - http://www.wholelotofnonsense.org UUCSH Sunday Services - http://uucsh.libsyn.com Follow Me - http://www.twitter.com/bpende Pownce on Me - http://www.pownce.com/bpende
