The Complete Invasion UK Series
It starts with a single bomb, a vehicle IED that devastates Whitehall, the signal for hostilities to begin. As night falls, enemy paratroopers drop onto the Mall, their target, the British Prime Minister. As the capitals of Europe fall like dominoes, the caliphate war machine engulfs England. What remains of the UK’s armed forces head north, to an ancient border, where they must arm up, dig deep and prepare for the toughest battle of their lives, one that will mark the beginning of a far larger and more dangerous conflict. The INVASION UK SERIES takes readers on an adrenaline-fuelled, action-packed journey across a world plunged into global conflict. From the war-torn streets of London to the ice-capped mountains of the Himalayas, from the corridors of power in Washington DC to the marble palaces of a transformed Baghdad, the battle for political, military and ideological supremacy will sweep across the globe.

Convinced that a plane has crashed on a nearby peak, he races up the mountain, only to discover the wreckage is unlike any aircraft Harry has ever seen. And something inside has survived.

Ashenden
Ashenden, Or The British Agent is founded on Maugham's experiences in the English Intelligence Department during World War I, but rearranged for the purposes of fiction. This fascinating book contains the most expert stories of espionage ever written. For a period of time after it was first published the book became official required reading for persons entering the secret service. The plot follows the imaginary John Ashenden who during World War I is a spy for British Intelligence. He is sent first to Geneva and later to Russia. Instead of one story from start to finish, the chapters contain individual stories involving many different characters. All of the people whom Ashenden meet during his travels have their own reason for being involved in the spy game, and each are more complex than they first look.
Invasion: Uprising
Three years long years of tyranny and bloodshed have passed since the invasion of Europe. Now a new dawn rises. A nuclear attack shatters the fragile peace between Beijing and Baghdad. In Europe, Caliphate forces are driven back across a war-torn Ireland and into the sea. As the tide turns and hope rises, hard decisions are about to be made. Britain’s most senior judge, a ruthless tyrant, is determined to crush the seeds of rebellion with her own brutal form of justice. In London, a resistance fighter must put his own life at risk as the walls close in around him. Meanwhile, far to the north, the King’s Continental Army is preparing for all-out war. Within its ranks, four friends stand ready to assault the deadliest frontier imaginable. And when the uprising begins, the battle that follows might cost them their lives.
South Africa–China Relations
With the pace of trade and investment picking up, coupled with closer international cooperation with Beijing through the G20, FOCAC and BRICS grouping, South Africa-China ties are assuming a significant position in continental and even global affairs. At the same time, it is a relationship of paradoxes, breaking with many of the assumptions that underpin contemporary analyses of ‘China-Africa’ ties. This edited volume examines the South Africa-China relationship through a survey of its diplomatic partnership, economic ties, and broader community relations. These important aspects that are often conflated as a single relationship, yet what is important to explore are how these components reflect different China-South Africa relationship(s), and how they intersect.
Failure to Adjust
*Updated edition with a new foreword on the Trump administration's trade policy* The vast benefits promised by the supporters of globalization, and by their own government, have never materialized for many Americans. In Failure to Adjust Edward Alden provides a compelling history of the last four decades of US economic and trade policies that have left too many Americans unable to adapt to or compete in the current global marketplace. He tells the story of what went wrong and how to correct the course. Originally published on the eve of the 2016 presidential election, Alden’s book captured the zeitgeist that would propel Donald J. Trump to the presidency. In a new introduction to the paperback edition, Alden addresses the economic challenges now facing the Trump administration, and warns that economic disruption will continue to be among the most pressing issues facing the United States. If the failure to adjust continues, Alden predicts, the political disruptions of the future will be larger still.
