It's 1947, and the Second World War has just ended.
At the height of its power, the Red Army occupies Germany with overwhelming force, while in Asia, Soviet armies sweep through Manchuria and collide with American forces advancing into Korea. Then, without warning, the Soviet Union strikes on both fronts.
In Europe, armored formations surge into Allied zones, smashing through exhausted defenses. In Korea, American and Soviet troops meet in open battle as the peninsula erupts into a brutal, fast-moving war. There are no declarations, no negotiations, only a sudden, full-scale conflict between former allies.
Caught in transition and unprepared for another war, American and British forces must regroup under fire while facing the largest land army ever assembled. Outnumbered and overstretched, they fight to hold the line as Europe burns again and Asia descends into chaos, and soon end up recruiting the enemies of yesterday, both in Asia and Europe.
1947 is the gripping conclusion of the epic, 30-book saga, including the Blitzkrieg Alternate Series and the Pacific Alternate Series, an alternate history war story featuring large-scale armored warfare, strategic command decisions, and a relentless two-front conflict that could have reshaped the modern world.
