The best novels about the Great Patriotic War, worthy of entering the “golden fund” of military prose. From the Demyansk “cauldron” to besieged Leningrad, from the Valley of Death to the Sinyavin Heights - the bloody suffering of 1942 in all its horror and grandeur. “Here begins hell!” - the Germans installed such a sign on the road to Myasny Bor, where the 2nd Shock Army was bleeding, although in the merciless 42nd on the Soviet-German front, hell was everywhere. And near Demyansk, where, true to the motto of the Airborne Forces “Nobody but us,” the First Maneuverable Airborne Brigade was killed, having managed to inflict irreparable losses on the enemy. And in Leningrad, dying of hunger, but never broken. And on the damned Sinyavinsky heights, where our infantry stormed the inaccessible slopes for months, rising into the underworld to break through the Blockade at any cost... If we, today, found ourselves in that fiery and icy hell, we would have enough spirit to stand shoulder to shoulder with our ancestors, what we are you ready for the sake of Victory, are you worthy of your grandfather’s immortal glory?

Three bestsellers in one volume: Landing Forces-42. In the icy hell Break the blockade! Hellish heights We will die yesterday
