Extinction is the second novel in B.V.

Extinction takes place soon after the events of Swarm. Kyle has made a deal with the bad aliens. He promised that if theyƒ??d leave the Earth alone, heƒ??d supply them with trained troops to help them fight their other battles around the universe. He needs to get those troops ready before the aliens come to collect. He also needs to figure out how to make more spaceships because the aliens have kidnapped a bunch of them, along with their captains, so they can use them to fight elsewhere.
