ABOUT 1944 - Kirov Series #36 Vladimir Karpov takes his private war to the Marianas, and meets Admiral Kita’s Task Force head on as the mighty Kirov once again joins the action in the Pacific. The Allied Generals meet to decide their strategy, and the fate of Operation Overlord hangs in the balance. Then the war in the West takes a dramatic turn when Rommel and Guderian launch their bid to isolate and destroy Patton’s 7th Army in Operation Valkyrie. The battle that results rapidly redraws the lines on the war maps, and threatens to decide the outcome in the West. As the fiery General Patton commits everything to hold his position, he then launches a stunning counterattack, but in a most unexpected direction. As Manstein makes his dramatic withdrawal to the Dnieper, the shifting loyalties of Ivan Volkov take him to a dangerous meeting in Leningrad with Sergei Kirov. There he makes his final bid for a cease fire and peace terms with the Soviet Union, and a startling offer that becomes much more than it seems.Kirov 36 1944 By John Schettler Part I – PreparationsPart II – Wolf at the DoorPart III – Morgan’s DilemmaPart IV – Scorched EarthPart V – Decision in the WestPart VI – The Spoils of WarPart VII – Ride of the ValkyriesPart VIII– The CruciblePart IX – Fire on the LoirePart X – The Ides of March PartXI – Bitter Dregs PartXII – April Fool’s DayTrade 36 Chapters, 320 Pages; Kindle version
