Synopsis

In Taylor Anderson's acclaimed Destroyermen series, a parallel universe adds an extraordinary layer to the drama of World War II. Now, Lieutenant Commander Matthew Reddy, the crew of the U.S.S. Walker, and their allies battle an ever-growing host of enemies across the globe in a desperate battle for freedom . . .

War has engulfed the other earth. With every hard-won victory and painful defeat, Matt Reddy and the Allies encounter more friends—and even more diabolical enemies. Even, at last, in the arms of the woman he loves, there is little peace for Reddy.  The vast sea, and the scope of the conflict, have trapped him too far away to help on either front, but that doesn't mean he and Walker can rest. Cutting short his "honeymoon," Reddy sails off in pursuit of  Hidoiame , a rogue Japanese destroyer that is wreaking havoc in Allied seas. Now that Walker is armed with the latest "new" technology, he hopes his battle-tested four-stacker has an even chance in a straight-up fight against the bigger ship—and he means to take her on. Elsewhere, the long-awaited invasion of Grik "Indiaa" has begun, and the Human-Lemurian Alliance is pushing back against the twisted might of the Dominion. The diplomatic waters seethe with treachery and a final, terrible plot explodes in the Empire of New Britain Isles.  Worse, the savage Grik have also mastered "new" technologies and strategies. Their fleet of monstrous ironclads—and an army two years in the making—are finally massing to strike . . .

Goodreads review by Charles on March 16, 2020

The allied advance runs into problems If you have been reading this series regularly and in order it may seem that after the first few volumes the allies were relentlessly and inexorably rolling forward over the Grik. This volume brings that to a screeching, but one presumes temporary, halt. The Grik......more

Goodreads review by Sir on July 23, 2012

7 books in, and the series continues to grow deeper and more complex. I'm starting to think it will never end! (This is a good thing, of course, but it's a little hard on poor Walker. How much of a beating can one ship take?) None of the sides are as simple and clear cut as they started out. This book......more

Man, what can I say that hasn't been said before? This one has more boats. And a marriage. And possibly some other folks. Has some interesting developments in how the Lemurians planet fits into the universe as a whole, but is sort of lost in the rest of the happenings.......more
