You may have to explain this entry. Battlefield Earth 2? There is no such animal that I am aware of and no listing on Fantastic Fiction or any other book listings that I could find. Perhaps you have this confused with another series of two books? If not, I'd love to know the title of the second book. |
The original Battlefield: Earth was a fairly thick volume. It's possible DixiGal has a two book re-package I'm not aware of.
The other possibility is that she's conflating it with the ten volume "Mission: Earth" series.

John Travolta has express interest in a second movie but I've never heard of a sequel to this book.

John Travolta will have lots of luck getting financing to
make a sequel. The original was a notable bomb that was largely laughed out of the theaters, and badly damaged Travolta's career. Prior to it, he was a bankable star. Afterward, producers thought hard before casting him, and his output has been uneven at best.
