Product Description
As the world moves into the next millennium, the United States finds itself at the forefront of a new age, policing not only its own shores, but the rest of the world as well. Spearheading this are the men and women of America's armed forces, the "troops on the wall" who will go anywhere, anytime, and do whatever it takes to protect our nation and the rest of the free world. Combat brings the best authors in military fiction together to reveal how war will be fought in the 21st century, from the down-and-dirty "groundpounders" of the U.S. Cavalry to the new frontiers of warfare--outer space and the internet. Ten authors whose novels define the military fiction genre have written all new short novels about the men and women willing to put their lives on the line for freedom:
