"Packed with action, INVASION is relentless and leaves you wanting more. Highly recommended." ★★★★★ Steven McLaughlin, Author of Squaddie: A Soldier's Story This story moves at breakneck pace, but be warned—have another book ready., because you'll read this one quickly. ★★★★★ ARRSE - The Army Rumour Service, The UK's largest unofficial military website. ________________ London, the far future—the city is almost unrecognisable, a legacy of the war fought centuries past. Now, two men navigate its dark streets, soldiers on a mission, fighting a battle that began hundreds of years ago… As Downing Street basks beneath a summer sun, the driver of a truck bomb watches and waits as the seconds on his watch tick away. Across the city, three men park their van beneath London’s busiest flight path and unload Stinger missiles, aiming them at the giant airliner passing overhead. In Stockwell, south London, an MI5 officer discovers that his surveillance target—and scores of others—have shaken their tails and disappeared. All at the same time. The fuse has been lit. A maelstrom of violence is about to engulf the capital, a precursor to something far bigger. Something unimaginable and infinitely more terrifying… INVASION.

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.

The battle for Britain rages. As the fighting sweeps across northern England, Eddie Novak and his friends infiltrate enemy lines to help a desperate comrade reach home. But the once peaceful village has been plagued by criminals and collaborators, men of violence who take whatever they want. Including children. Now Eddie and the boys must embark on a dangerous rescue mission deep into the heart of a hostile city. Getting there will be hard enough. Getting out alive will need a miracle. Elsewhere, deep in the heart of the caliphate, a coup threatens to unleash a global nuclear exchange. Every day brings more uncertainty, fear, and death. On both sides of the frontline, lives hang by the barest of threads.

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.

Delta Force operator Vann Jackson has brought something far deadlier than his guns back to the US embassy in Baghdad. He’s carrying a gruesome virus, and when he launches a savage attack in the embassy chow hall, it doesn’t take long before the infection spreads and things go to hell. As the death toll climbs faster than a Baghdad thermometer, desperate diplomats beg Washington DC for help, but Secretary of State Amy Coffman has other plans for the embassy… And they don’t include saving her fellow Americans. Abandoned by their political masters and cut off from the outside world, the survivors must fight their way out of the fortified compound before the growing army of infected can get to them. And before a ruthless cabal can implement their final, terrible solution.

Abandon all fossil fuels or face an unstoppable plague... In the wake of the Baghdad disaster, President Amy Coffman is battling to get her administration back on track when eco-terrorists threaten to unleash a gruesome contagion, one that transforms ordinary people into blood-thirsty savages. Unless the world dials the clock back a hundred years. Either way, billions will die. As the US military-industrial complex mobilises to neutralise the terrorists, Coffman and her allies discover a new and unexpected opportunity - weaponise the virus and seize ultimate power. But first, the dominoes have to fall. The targets are global cities with teeming populations, and Coffman intends to watch them all burn as the horrifying pandemic spreads across the planet. Unless she can be stopped. But doing so might set the world on a far darker and dangerous path than anyone can imagine. And humanity is running out of time.

British Prime Minister Gabriel Bryce lies injured in hospital, a survivor of the Whitehall bomb that has killed most of his Cabinet and thrown the country into chaos.

The plot is underway, the target Britain itself. As the dead are buried and a new government takes power, Bryce and Whelan realise they are pawns in a vast conspiracy, one designed to crush a rebellious Britain and throw open the gates of Europe. To survive the coup, Bryce and Whelan must stay one step ahead of their enemies, led by a ruthless British politician determined to see them both dead… And Britain transformed for all time.

Former US Navy SEAL Frank Marshall is a dangerously messed up individual. Haunted by thousands of innocent deaths, Frank’s mission in life is to make those responsible pay, and that means stepping back onto the grid…where men of violence are waiting to kill him. Across the Atlantic, a ruthless London gangster has given Border Force officer Roy Sullivan an ultimatum—take part in a criminal enterprise or watch his young son suffer the consequences. Now an impending global disaster is about to throw the two men together, a horrifying conspiracy that will decimate humanity and usher in a brutal new dawn for mankind. To stop it, Frank and Roy must join forces... Or three billion people are going to die.

In what is now largely considered a footnote in history, Americans invaded Canada along the Niagara Frontier in 1866. The group behind the invasion—the Fenian Brotherhood—was formed in 1858 by Irish nationalists in New York City in order to fight for Irish independence from Britain. At the end of the American Civil War, Fenian leaders attempted to use Irish Americans, many of them combat veterans, to seize Canada and make it the "New Ireland" as a means to force the British from "old" Ireland. New York State was both the epicenter of Fenian leadership and a key support base and staging area for the military operations. Although relatively short-lived and with some of its military operations being somewhere between farce and tragedy, the Fenian Brotherhood had a very important impact on nineteenth-century New York and America, but remains largely forgotten. In Rebels on the Niagara Lawrence E. Cline examines not only the Fenian operations and their impact on Canada, but also the role the United States and New York played in both the initial support for the Fenian movement and its subsequent collapse in America.
