White Sun War Zusammenfassung

White Sun War: The Campaign for Taiwan Mick Ryan

After decades of poising on the brink, the United States and China finally go to war when China invades the island of Taiwan. Deploying their most futuristic technologies in this grand strategic competition of the 21st century, the stakes could not be higher. Not only the future of the Taiwanese people but the fate of the world lies in the balance. In an era when humans no longer just use machines, but partner with them in all aspects of military operations, this fictional account views this future war through the eyes of the American, Chinese, and Taiwanese caught up in the maelstrom, revealing the heartbreak, courage, leadership, and despair of high-tech warfare played out on land, at sea, in space, and in cyberspace. White Sun War asks readers to ponder anew an essential question for the future of security in western Pacific and the entire Indo-Pacific region: is a war for Taiwan winnable?

White Sun War Bewertungen

The author's professional background equips him well to describe changes in military technology and tactics, and these areas are covered well in the narrative. * Army Rumour Service *
A gripping account of future war that is equal parts entertaining and sobering. Mick Ryan writes with a credibility and authority that transforms this techno-thriller into a provocative wartime narrative that belies its fictional roots ... An absolute must read. * Steve Leonard, Senior Assistant Dean of the University of Kansas School of Business and co-editor of To Boldly Go: Leadership, Strategy, and Conflict in the 21st Century and Beyond *
To be successful, future war fiction requires an author who is militarily expert, has literary skill and an imaginative gift. Mick Ryan has all those qualities in abundance, and the result is a book that is entertaining, thought-provoking and quite possibly prescient. Not just an engaging tale but a warning of things to come. * Eliot A. Cohen, Robert E. Osgood Professor of Strategic Studies, Johns Hopkins SAIS *
White Sun War is a first-rate techno-thriller. It is an enjoyable read in and of itself, but its concept-driven narrative is what sets it apart from other books. The characters and their interactions illuminate ongoing debates about the future of war and how a conflict between the United States and China could well play out ... While the goal is certainly to avoid war, it is far better to be intellectually prepared for that possibility and its conduct, and Ryan's entry is a welcome addition to this discussion. * Diplomatic Courier *
