There's no single Jack Ryan–type character the free world’s fate depends upon brave men and women fight, and you’d better not get too attached to any of them. Gragg's plot is strong and backed up by plenty of vivid, fast-moving battle scenes, with the war’s outcome uncertain almost to the end. Yovanovich promises Cheninko a victory in five days. troops are still in Germany, providing the makings for a 20th century–style land war. The Russians are Soviets again, the Warsaw Pact is back, and U.S. The Russian Army plays “crazy winter war games” near the German border, “a ruse to hide their true intentions,” which are to invade and conquer Germany. Communists retake Russia in this debut novel, and their Stalin-esque leader, Cheninko, fears the unified Germany that’s once again run by vile Nazis.
