World Killers was a Robotech novel written by Jack McKinney published in 1988. It was the 5th focusing on Robotech II: The Sentinels
Summary[]
Optera! Birthplace of the Flowers of Life and their agents of retribution, the Invid nexus for an unfolding of events that had left the galaxy reshaped and redefined and now the focal point of the Sentinels' long campaign to liberate the Quadrant from the Regent's tyranny.
Edwards is on his way to Optera, in flight from Tirol with his prisoner Lynn-Minmei and a handful of Invid Inorganics under his control. So too are Breetai's Zentraedi closing on the very world the Imperative bade them defoliate generations ago and the renegade forces of Tesla, mutated beyond recognition by the fruits of the Flower.
The Sentinels themselves are not far behind. However, they have Peryton to deal with first a godforsaken planet cursed by fate and time itself. But what awaits Rick, Lisa, and the Human Sentinels there is a mere primer for what is to come: the realization that they have journeyed across the galaxy to wage war against each other.
Plot summary[]
As the REF marks three years of their mission, the Sentinels continue their campaign against the Invid Regent, freeing the people of Peryton from their curse. With Breetai's help, they return to Tirol just in time for Edwards to escape and ally with the Regent. The Zentraedi return to Optera, site of their old rampage, where the Regent is killed. The Sentinels are then able to defeat Edwards, who mutates himself at the Genesis Pit, although Janice forces him back into the exploding pit.
Back on Haydon IV, Exedore sees the signal of Haydon's return.
