Book Description
What if North Korea’s sudden turn towards peace is a cunning act of misdirection? A routine Coast Guard inspection of a cargo ship in the Caribbean turns into a vicious firefight with unidentified Asian commandos. The second attempt to board the vessel ends with a nuclear detonation. North Korea has been smuggling short and intermediate-range missiles into Cuba. An unknown number of nuclear warheads are hidden less than 100 miles from the tip of Florida. Every American city east of San Antonio is in the target zone. Scrambling to stop the flow of weapons to Cuba, the president orders the Atlantic Fleet to surround the island, cutting off all access. It’s the Cuban Missile Crisis all over again, but this time there won’t be a diplomatic resolution. The North Koreans have developed a secret weapon that rips through the blockade with ease, leaving burning ships and floating bodies in its wake. Against this unimagined threat stand a small detachment of United States Marines and a cutting-edge destroyer that’s never been tested in combat. It’s a battle we never expected to fight, against an enemy we can barely comprehend...

Pages : 336
Book Description
In a ruined and desolate land, a young woman finds herself stranded and alone, with no memory of her past and only a single clue to identity: an engagement ring with the inscription, 'Cybil'. Even if she can navigate the hostile realm of homicidal, hybridised beasts, what hope does she have of ever finding home? An encounter with some unlikely allies, offers her a chance of survival. But will the 'smash and grab' tactics of the continent's most notorious smuggling crew be enough to see her through this dystopian nightmare? They quickly find themselves caught up in the intensifying discord between the fascist City States and the anarchic Outlands. Cybil's unyielding desire to find her lost love must take a back seat to the bonds of friendship, as her unfailing sense of loyalty draws her into a conspiracy that threatens to tear civilization apart. Can a handful of misfit rebels thwart the most powerful entity on the continent and change the course of history...? "A well conceived story, with a furious pace and a half-dozen twists that completely blindside you."

Pages : 232
Book Description
Steel Wind is a piece of historical detective work that explains how Colonel Georg Bruchmuller, an obscure German artillery officer recalled from retirement, played a pivotal role in the revolution of offensive tactics that took place in 1917-18. Ironically, the methods developed by Bruchmuller ultimately were rejected by the German Army of World War II, but they were taken up and applied with a vengeance by the emerging Red Army. The Soviets further developed Bruchmuller's principles and incorporated them into their doctrine, where they remain to this day. Through Soviet doctrine, they have become fundamental to the practice of many other armies. Bruchmuller's influence in shaping the former Soviet Army has also been mirrored in the shape of those armies designed to oppose it.

Quest for Decisive Victory
Author: Robert Michael Citino
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 400
Book Description
Since the earliest days of warfare, military operations have followed a predictable formula: after a decisive battle, an army must pursue the enemy and destroy its organization in order to achieve a victorious campaign. But by the mid-19th century, the emergence of massive armies and advanced weaponry - and the concomitant decline in the effectiveness of cavalry - had diminished the practicality of pursuit, producing campaigns that bogged down short of decisive victory. Great battles had become curiously indecisive, decisive campaigns virtually impossible.
