Watch on the Rhine by Diamond Comic Distributors Inc
The invaders are coming the Posleen, a seemingly unstoppable horde who have conquered one star system after another, literally feeding on their conquests. Earth s dubious allies, the Darhel, have given the humans a number of highly-advanced technological devices, including a process for rejuvenating the aged, including trained and proven soldiers who otherwise would be too old to fight. Rejuvenation may give a critical edge, since to survive, the Earth must use every resource at hand. Every resource . . .In the dark days after the initial Posleen attack, but before the primary invasion, the Chancellor of Germany faces a critical decision. Over the years, with military cutbacks, the store of experienced German military personnel had simply dwindled. After the destruction of Northern Virginia, he realized that it was necessary to tap the one group he had sworn never, ever, to recall: the few remaining survivors of the Waffen S. Has he made a devil s bargain, or is this a chance for the reviled S at last to fight the good fight? And, perhaps, gain redemption. . . ?
Watch On the Rhine, a new chapter in the New York Times best-selling Posleen War saga, is perhaps the most unbiased, and brutal, look at the inner workings of the Waffen S in history. Meticulously researched, it explores all that was good, and evil, about the most infamous military force in history using the backdrop of the Posleen invasion as a canvas.
By joining the Regular Army in 1974, Tom Kratman, then seventeen years old, became a political exile and defector from the PRM (People's Republic of Massachusetts). After his initial stint, he remained a Regular Army infantryman for the rest of his life, returning to Massachusetts as an unofficial dissident while attending Boston College. Tom is currently working as an attorney in southwest Virginia. In the Posleen War series, Baen released his first novel, A Condition of Disobedience, as well as two collaborations with John Ringo, Watch on the Rhine and Yellow Eyes.
