Now Ralph Peters creates a new novel of global confict and compelling human drama, set against the shifting alliances of the future, where today's friends are tomorrow's enemies, and today's enemies
After fifteen years of intense preparation, a climactic confrontation is about to explode as Japanese-backed Islamic troops attack a Soviet Union already in a state of civil war. The Americans must join forces with the Soviets under terrifying circumstances. The Central Asian steppes are littered with the dead, victims of atrocities and chemical warfare, the Soviet Army is barely holding on to its last line of defenses. Legendary American Colonel George Taylor, commander of the U.S. Seventh Cavalry, wears the scars of his country's military humiliation on his face and in his heart
In a battle fought by electronics and lasers, where the killers never lock eyes, the Seventh Cavalry succeeds overwhelmingly. But Japanese General Noburu Kabata reluctantly strikes back—with a weapon of horrible, unimagined power.
With THE WAR IN 2020, Ralph Peters enhances his reputation as a master of modern warfare and complex human emotion—in this epic, visionary and utterly terrifying novel of conflict in the next century.
RALPH PETERS is a U.S. Army Foreign Area Officer specializing in the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe, where he has traveled widely and speaks a variety of local languages. He is the author of two previous novels. Bravo Romeo and the New York Times bestseller Red Army.
