Riassunto

Easy Reader Edition: Volume 3 The world is at war, from the steamy jungles of South America to the high ice of mountain glaciers. This is the third of a five part tale of global war, and the people under arms, on both sides of the conflict. NATO won the Battle of the Atlantic at terrible cost, and not only in men, women and material but to the planet also. In Europe the NATO army is close to exhaustion, grimly holding its ground along the Elbe and Saale rivers, buying time for the US and Canadian 4 Corps to arrive, but their grit and determination are frustrating an enemy becoming ever more desperate and a finger hovers over a button marked 'Nuclear Release'. In Russia, Svetlana has dangled herself as bait for an ex-lover and avoided gang rape in order to learn the Premiers location, but the Security Forces are closing in and the 'Ex' is not done with her yet. In Asia the Green Berets, SAS Mountain Troop and the Royal Marines Mountain & Arctic Warfare Cadre are battling the weather, the mountains and the enemy in order to reach the Chinese ICBM silos and space centre. In Australia, unlikely allies join to confront a million man invading army.whilst in the Pacific the US Navy and HMS Hood need to find and destroy China's ballistic missile submarine 'Xia'. And what also of General Henry Shaw, United States Marine Corps? The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs believes that underhanded dealings and dirty tricks should be used on the enemy, not your own. Step up once more beside the soldiers and sailors of both sides of the conflict.

L'autore:

Andy Farman was born in Cheshire, England in 1956 into a close family of servicemen and servicewomen who at that time were serving or who had served in the Royal Air Force, Royal Navy and British Army. As a 'Pad brat' he was brought up on whichever RAF base his Father was posted to. He joined the British Army as an Infantry Junior Leader in 1972 at the tender age of 15, serving in the Coldstream Guards on ceremonial duties at the Royal Palaces, flying the flag in Africa, and on operations in both Ulster and on the UK mainland. In 1981 Andy swapped his green suit for a blue one with the Metropolitan Police. With volunteer reservist service in both the Wessex Regiment and 253 Provost Company, Royal Military Police (V) he spent twenty four years in front line policing, both in uniform and plain clothes. The final six years as a police officer were served in a London inner city borough and wearing two hats, those of an operation planner, and liaison officer with the television and film industry. His first literary work to be published was that of a poem about life as a soldier in Ulster, sold with all rights to a now defunct writers monthly in Dublin for the princely sum of £11 (less the price of the stamp on the envelope that the cheque arrived in.) The 'Armageddon's Song' series began as a mental exercise to pass the mornings whilst engaged on a surveillance operation on a drug dealer who never got out of bed until the mid afternoon. On retirement he emigrated with his wife to the Philippines where he dives for relaxation and is a member of the famous Asian running club 'The IGAT Runners'. The first two volumes of the series have been published in print and also Kindle form along with Abridged editions making them suitable for the Under 18's
