Foxbane Kirov Series Battle Book I
In a move that stunned Great Britain in 1940, the Germans launched a daring operation to seize the vaunted Rock of Gibraltar and Malta. Now Erwin Rommel leads the Afrika Korps in a bid to conquer all of Egypt and knock England out of the war. But a strange event in the year 2021 sends the Great Grandsons of the Desert Rats back through time to pose a bold new challenge. Soon the hunter becomes the hunted, as the Desert Fox struggles for his very survival in this exciting alternate history of WWII. Loaded with action, this book presents 58 chapters of all the action from the German Operation Felix attack on Gibraltar, the daring attack on Malta, the opening moves in North Africa with O'Connor's Raid, the Battle of Beda Fomm, and Operation Sonnenblume, Rommel's first offensive. Then, in the midst of the fighting, General O'Connor goes missing, and a desperate search and rescue operation is mounted. Fate takes the search team to a unexpected rendezvous in the deep desert, where a strange event in the midst of a new war in 2021 has displaced the modern British 7th Armored Brigade back in time to 1941. As Rommel drives east towards Alexandria, he is soon confronted by a powerful new enemy that becomes the bane of the Desert Fox from that day forward. At the battle of Bir el Khamsa, modern day Challenger II tanks and Warrior AFVs confront the cream of Rommel's Afrika Korps. But we're just getting started! Foxbane then continues as Rommel receives powerful new reinforcements to launch a bold attack on Tobruk. The fighting continues as the British launch their own counteroffensives in Operation Crusader, and finally Operation Supercharge, where the Desert Rats seek to push Rommel back to Tripoli. Here is all the great desert war action extracted from the massive 24 volume Kirov Series novels by John Schettler, re-edited by the author and presented in one continuous file spanning 58 chapters. (Over 175,000 words). This is military fiction at its absolute finest, an alternate history so convincing that you’ll believe it actually happened!
Foxbane Kirov Series Battle Book I The Desert War Kiriv Series Battle Books 1 eBook John Schettler
Very well researched and written alternative history. Starts just after the Battle of Britain when Hitler convinces Spain to join the Axis.With Gibraltar taken and the western Med closed off it is on to Malta for Germany. Most of the first half of the book deals with this alternative campaign and other changes to what we know.
Then it leaps forward to 2020 when another war breaks out and the Modern day Desert Rats end up in WW2. I like how the author merges the timeline and integrates the 7th Armored into WW2. Also some of the timeline changes with battles that never occurred or were won instead of lost etc. And the development of new tanks by both sides. He also tackles logistics of trying to keep a 21st Century armored brigade supplied and how parts and ammo are a factor. I have never been into alternative history much but this book has changed my opinion of it.
I recommend readers read the introduction as it provides background on the series this book was written from.

Thank you
It's a page turner.
I liked this one. I'm assuming I should read the whole series though.
Loved the format and the actual information from the real battles! I am very excited to read the next book!
Book is not bad, but it jumps around little too much for my liking.
War in the desert as only Schettler can write it. Great battle book from his much beloved Kirov series. Lots of action for fans like me!
I picked up on this Kirov series some time ago, but never could seem to get into it. This is apparently a new series using the older one as a jump off point, and as such I much preferred it. The writer is skilled and knowledgable with regard to his history, but he also has some clear biases in his attitudes towards some of the historical figures he must deal with. Plus, even here, the narrative occasionally seemed to drag. Still, it is delightful to see an alternate history that is clearly well edited and thought provoking. I enjoyed it.
