Winter Kill 2 Gene Skellig

In this much anticipated parallel to Gene Skellig's captivating military techno-thriller: Winter Kill - War With China Has Already Begun, we follow the lives of two Americans, one a US Army Ranger with a deep personal interest in Chinese military doctrine; the other, a Major from the 3rd Battalion, 3rd Marine Division. Both men, along with their families, have been given Permanent Change of Station orders to report to Darwin, Norther Territory, Australia just months before the Nuclear Extinction War breaks out. Their contributions to the battle for Australia, centered on Marine Air Ground Task Force - Australia (MAGTFA) and a few key USN Warships, are key to thwarting the relentless Chinese advances in the strategically important region. Readers of the original Winter Kill will enjoy the faster-paced, tighter narrative of the second Winter Kill novel. The antics of one particular Top Sergeant and the determined efforts of the Australian citizenry will draw you into the personalities involved as well as connect you to the Australian point of view. One other dimension of note is that of the Chinese involved, whether as PLA soldiers, PLA commanders, Australian Chinese and others caught up in the conflict. Neutrality in this conflict is not an option. The two Winter Kill books stand individually, or in concert, however the author recommends reading Winter Kill - War With China Has Already Begun at the outset, for the geopolitical, military and economic conditions which motivate the evil genius, General Bing, to concoct such a terrible plan. For those who follow real-world geo-strategic events, you will recognize the high degree of congruence between the near future, fictional, Winter Kill world and current events. Whether we are already at war with China, or are moving inexorably towards war, is a question only the reader can answer. The Winter Kill books will certainly provide you with a good look at what a war with China could be like.
