About the book
Imagine the rebirth of Germany's SS forces, though changed in the motivations that earned them hate, they were soldiers with a true military mindset - but now they are not under the control of mad men, but fighting for all of human kind - they even have Jewish units and soldiers fighting with them and mutual respect. Sounds far fetched? John Ringo and Tom Kratman make it real, and the resultant cost to the Posteen makes it satisfying. gmb 9/7/20
