Der "Krieg gegen den Terrorismus" ist weit von einem Sieg entfernt, doch scheint dieser Kampf für US-Präsident Kealty, den Nachfolger von Jack Ryan im Oval Office, keine Priorität zu besitzen. Der "Emir", ein weltweit vernetzter Terrorist, der hinter den schändlichsten Terroranschlägen auf die westliche Welt steckt, konnte trotz vereinten internationalen Bemühungen bislang nicht dingfest gemacht werden.

Hailed as one of the finest novels to come out of the Second World War, The Naked and the Dead received unprecedented critical acclaim upon its publication and has since become part of the American canon. This fiftieth anniversary edition features a new introduction created especially for the occasion by Norman Mailer.

It is The Campus. Secretly created under the administration of President Jack Ryan, its sole purpose is to eliminate terrorists and those who protect them. Officially, it has no connection to the American government - a necessity in a time when those in power consider themselves above such arcane ideals as loyalty, justice, and right or wrong.

The world has descended into chaos, but it isn't the undead that are the worst part. Panic, broken supply lines, disrupted communications, terrorized refugees, the friction and fog of war all combine to make hell on Earth. The battered men and women of America's storied First Infantry Division, based out of Fort Riley Kansas, are ordered to give up their fights in the cities and retreat towards to the National Redoubt in the Northwest.

But no journey at the end of the world is without disaster. Faced with a mission derailed by catastrophe, Shepherd must make an impossible choice to save his country—and the world.

Ex-special forces operator Amos Carver is being framed for murder. Carver hasn't killed anyone. At least not for a few years, and certainly not in some backwoods Georgia town. He would never harm the person they're accusing him of murdering. But nobody believes him. And no one is willing to help prove otherwise.

The cartel has Paola in their sights. They know where she is and they're coming for her. Carver has no idea where she is. He's tried contacting her and she's not answering. She might already be captured. She might already be dead. He gets a lead on her last location and it's the last place he expected her to go. It's also the last place he ever wants to visit again, but he has no choice.

Amos Carver is just enjoying some R&R when people try to murder him in his sleep. The key word is try. Because Carver doesn't let his guard down. Not even when he's living the tranquil life in a beach house. It turns out these people might have kidnapped or killed a former squad mate of his. A man named Cliff Barrows. And Carver wants to know why. More than that, he wants to teach them a lesson. Barrows saved Carver on more than one occasion. That means Carver owes him. Owes him big time. And even if he didn't, Carver still adheres to a simple code. Leave no brother behind.

Carver goes to El Fuerte to visit his friend, Joe Donelly, only to find out he's dead. Joe bred prize-winning horses. One of those horses supposedly kicked him to death. Carver doesn't buy that for a minute. For one thing, Joe was a former Navy SEAL. He taught Carver everything he knew. He was a careful man. Skilled. Quick on his feet. A pro at handling horses. Carver quickly discovers there were plenty of reasons for someone to want Joe dead.

Amos Carver is out camping when he's forced to kill two men. To be fair, they shot at him first. But they missed and Carver didn't. It turns out these men were tracking down a drug addict who stole something valuable from them. A briefcase full of money and drugs. Just before he dies, the drug addict tells Carver that he left the briefcase just over the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco. He left it with a woman named Sally.

Amos Carver is just minding his own business when a woman falls to her death right around the corner from where he's working. At first it seems like a senseless tragedy. An accident. Carver can't help but investigate. When he does, he realizes this was no ordinary woman. She was a trained killer. And she was looking for him.

When Carver finds out Liana Cardoso is missing, presumed dead, he'll stop at nothing to find out what happened to her, and he'll avenge her by any means necessary. Carver and Liana started out on opposite sides. She was NSA, he was trying to stop an assassin from hunting down Paola and killing her. After Carver saved Liana from Enigma, they laid low in the mountains of western North Carolina for a while and then the NSA welcomed Liana back in from the cold. But someone in the upper echelons of power sold a list of undercover agents to an information broker.

When Carver finds out that Rich Polaski, a man he served with in the SEALS, is on an NSA watch list, he goes to warn him out of a sense of duty. He arrives in the small town of Bickham, Illinois, a spotless town with almost zero crime, no chain stores, and an aesthetic from a time long past.

When a hurricane slams into western North Carolina, Carver decides it's time to leave his remote mountain cabin and head to the beach. Before he can get far, his pickup is taken out by a landslide, along with all of his weapons and equipment. Now he's on foot in gale force winds and pouring rain. He soon discovers that the area is swarming with escaped prisoners and mercenaries using the storm as cover for an insidious plan. A plan that involves turning a natural disaster into a full-scale apocalypse. Carver would rather be on the beach, but there's no way out.

Dr. Arman Pirouzi left Iran behind for a better life in the United States until he is reluctantly recruited by the CIA and returns to Tehran, where the ruthless IRGC hunts, tortures, and routinely kills spies and traitors with brutal efficiency. His mission: locate a critical asset, extract classified intelligence, and stop a war before it starts. His challenge: survive the most dangerous city in the world, where old friends become enemies, past loves are rekindled, and death waits around any corner. Capture means torture.

The best place to be in an Apocalypse is inside a thirty ton Bradley Fighting Vehicle grinding rotting bodies to paste under your tracks or using an Abrams 120mm canister round to turn a horde of undead into a pink mist. Here’s the thing though … tracks and guns and the people who operate them wear out, even as the living corpses keep coming at you.

Esta novela del Premio Nobel de Literatura, escrita en su etapa de madurez, es una indiscutible obra maestra, un prodigio de la literatura mundial cuya historia está plagada de transgresión, humor y violencia. Enmarcada en la Galicia rural durante la Guerra Civil, una lluvia incesante acompaña al lector y a los personajes, que convergen en torno a un burdel.
