WORLDWAR: BOOK 4 At the bloody height of World War II, the
deadliest enemies in all of human history were forced to
put aside their hatreds and unite against an even fiercer
foe: a seemingly invincible power bent on world
domination. With awesome technology, the aggressors
swept across the planet, sowing destruction as Tokyo,
Berlin, and Washington, D.C., were A-bombed into
submission. Russia, Nazi Germany, Japan and the U.S. were
not easily cowed, however. With cunning and incredible
daring, they pressed every advantage against the invader's
superior strength, and, led by Stalin, began to detonate
their own atom bombs in retaliation.City after city
explodes in radioactive firestorms, and fears grow as the
worldwide resources disappear; will there be any world
left for the invaders to conquer, or for the uneasy allies
to defend? While Mao Tse-tung wages a desperate guerrilla
war and Hitler drives his country toward self-destruction,
United States forces frantically try to stop the enemy's
push from coast to coast. Yet in this battle to stave off
world domination, unless the once-great military powers
take the risk of annihilating the human race, they'll risk
losing the war. The fatal, final deadline arrives in Harry
Turtledove's grand, smashing finale to the Worldwar
series, as uneasy allies desperately seek a way out of a
no-win, no-survival situation: a way to live free in a
world that may soon be bombed into atomic oblivion.From
