De: Jack Thorlin

Narrado por: Virtual Voice

In the near future, the U.S.-China War hangs in the balance. The Chinese military has broken through Taiwan’s defenses and is racing to conquer the remaining major cities on the island before American reinforcements can arrive. The only thing standing between the Chinese and final victory is a few thousand American paratroopers—and Clay McCormick. Together, they will confront the massive People’s Liberation Army, led by the brilliant Chinese commander Wu Fong, to decide the freedom of Taiwan. Following in the footsteps of Stand of Knights and The Lafayette Initiative, Fulcrum of the Citadel is the last chapter in the trilogy depicting all-out war between the United States and China over the fate of Taiwan. In Fulcrum, the two nations fight their decisive battle with next-generation weaponry and tactics, from advanced drones to cloud-seeding. With a memorable and diverse cast, Fulcrum shows an epic showdown between a stagnant American military undercut by poor leadership and an ascendant People’s Liberation Army representing the world's new superpower. Jack Thorlin, a congressional staffer and former editor of the Harvard National Security Journal, specializes in writing geopolitical thrillers on a grand scale in the tradition of Tom Clancy. This is his third novel.
