Korea, June 25, 1950. Tanks of the communist North Korean People's Army crash over the 38th parallel, and the Land of the Morning Calm erupts in bloody chaos. BROTHERS IN BATTLE Caught up in the fire and fury are Master Sgt. Sam Connover, U.S. military adviser to a do-or-die South Korean regiment, a maverick WWII vet with a Congressional Medal of Honor; Lt Col. Julian Barron, a spit-and-polish West Pointer with a special reason to want Connover dead; Lt. Chong Nam Ki, eldest son of a noble South Korean peasant fanatically dedicated to the glories of communism; and dozens more men and women, soldiers and civilians, Americana and Koreans, all struggling to survive. From the fox holes to the prison camps to the bunkers of the high command, here is an epic novel of the Korean War - a story of guts and glory, senseless tragedy and heroic sacrifice; of an ancient land in the desperate throes of a modern war.
