It is the summer of 1942 and what our historians have called the Incredible Victory in the Battle of Midway has become a horrendous disaster in the world. Two of America’s handful of carriers in the Pacific have blundered into a Japanese submarine picket line and have been sunk, while a third is destroyed the next day. The United States has only one carrier remaining in the Pacific against nine Japanese, while the ragtag remnants of U.S. battleships — an armada still reeling from the defeat at Pearl Harbor — are in even worse shape.Now the Pacific belongs to the Japanese. And it doesn’t stop there as Japan thrust her sword in to the hilt. Alaska is invaded. Hawaii is under blockade. The Panama Canal is nearly plugged. Worst of all, the West Coast of America is ripe destruction as bombers of the Empire of the Sun bombard West Coast American cities at will.Despite these disasters, the U.S. begins to fight back. Limited counterattacks are made and a grand plan is put forth to lure the Japanese into an ambush that could restore the balance in the Pacific and give the forces of freedom a fighting chance once more.About Himmler’s War:

Вражаюча альтернативна історія, що захоплює з перших сторінок!

Книга "Сонце, що сходить" є неймовірним прикладом альтернативної історії, яка переносить читача в 1942 рік, коли світ стоїть на межі катастрофи. Автор майстерно поєднує реальні історичні події з вигаданими персонажами, що робить сюжет ще більш захоплюючим і правдоподібним. Читачі можуть відчути напругу та страх, які переживають герої, коли вони стикаються з жахами війни та намагаються знайти способи протистояти ворогові. Описані битви та стратегії настільки детально, що ви немов стаєте свідком цих подій. Книга не лише розважає, але й змушує задуматися про наслідки війни та вибір, який роблять люди в складних ситуаціях. Я б рекомендував цю книгу всім, хто цікавиться історією, альтернативними реаліями або просто любить захоплюючі сюжети!
