Retreat, Hell!

The Corps, Book 10

De: W. E. B. Griffin

Narrado por: Dick Hill

It is the fall of 1950. The Marines have made a pivotal breakthrough at Inchon, but a roller coaster awaits them. The bit in his teeth, Douglas MacArthur is intent on surging across the 38th parallel toward the Yalu River, where he is certain no Chinese are waiting for him, while Major Ken McCoy, operating undercover, hears a different story entirely, and is just as intent on nailing down the truth before it is too late. Meanwhile, Brigadier General Fleming Pickering, shuttling between two continents, works desperately to mediate the escalating battle between MacArthur and President Harry Truman, while trying to keep his mind from the cold fact that somewhere out there, his own daredevil pilot son, Pick, is lost behind enemy lines - and may be lost forever.

Before Retreat, Hell! is finished, all their fates will be determined - and for some of them, it will be a bitter pill indeed.

A great book. Apparently based in truth which makes it even more interesting. And spoiler alert pik gets the girl.

The last and the best...

This was Bill's last and best work of the Corps series... We lost him this year in February... I will miss him very much! Blood & Guts, Sir...

Fantastic

This series was captivating I could not stop listening to it. The history and the fiction blended together in a very interesting and heartfelt story.

Sorry the saga has to end :(

The Corps series was one of the finest pieces of historic fiction I've read, Period! I'm only sad that it couldn't continue throughout Korea and into Vietnam.
As a veteran of both the AirForce and Army, I served in Europe for the Cold War and on Operation Iraqi Freedom. I have a great admiration for my friends and brothers who proudly wear The Globe and Anchor! Semper Fi!

Oorah

As a former Marine Viet Nam combat veteran I appreciate the story and the way the dialogue was presented. Sounded just like we talked and expressed our pride in being United States Marines. No matter the war, we all think and act in the best interest of the U.S.A. the Marine Corps and our fellow Marines. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Awesome!!!

The whole series is amazing to read. I finished reading the series well over a decade ago and, at the time, I was sorry to see it end. Over the last month or so, I was able to enjoy them all over again. Thumbs up to Dick Hill for his performance.
This series is a must read and a must listen.
Semper Fi!!!! Cpl Gabe Martinez, USMC 1988-93. Once a Marine...

Best info on military life.

Dicks Hill is a great performer. I'm amazed at how much trouble he goes to in making this real . Loved it!

Good book at beginning and end but middle lacks

I am a fan of the corps series. Maybe it's because I have listened to so many of them on such a short time but I can definitely tell the differences between them in terms of flow and flavor of the story. I would like to hear more in the series. The end is good but it kind of abruptly stops. Would like to know what happens to the characters. Recommended.
