Descrizione dell’articolo da parte del venditore

Tight, clean and unmarked-23.1 x 15.2 x 2.5 cm-" Honorary Lieutenant General Richard Rohmer is a Canadian aviator, lawyer, adviser, author, historian and arguably one of the most decorated and revered members of the Canadian armed forces who ever donned the uniform. His extraordinary thriller, STARMAGEDDON, is a geopolitical potboiler guaranteed to curl the toes of every reader and remind us how narrowly we escaped the 20th century with our world intact and how razor-sharp the knife edge is on which the world walks even today.-Dateline 2000: The Kremlin in a paranoid Russia has its hackles up and bristling as the USA completes successful testing and puts the finishing touches on Ronald Reagan's orbital Strategic Defense System (SDS). The South Korean government is offended that the American government has taken them to task for shouldering an insufficient portion of the bill for Asian defense. The president is also about to sign a new bill slashing auto imports from South Korea with a view to reducing a skewed trade deficit. (Gee does this sound familiar at all?) The VP is delegated to make a personal visit to South Korea to soothe the ruffled feathers. The brown stuff hits the proverbial fan when her flight wanders into a Soviet weapons testing range as a result of a manual error loading incorrect coordinates for the computer's take-off position into the navigational computer.-The tension in Rohmer's STARMAGEDDON is palpable and no reader will be able to escape the urgent necessity to turn pages. I frantically needed to see if the protagonists in Rohmer's imagined confrontation could find the wisdom and courage to stand down or if they would somehow pull the world over the brink into a catastrophically destructive nuclear exchange and all-out World War III. Folks, this is truly gripping stuff and it isn't mere hyperbole to say that my stomach was in knots as I moved from one event to the next one ? each getting closer to that all-out nuclear exchange!"-Paul Weiss.…
