Official synopsis Publisher
In the 21st Century the face of war had changed. Atomic weapons — out! Bazookas and rockets — nyet! Machine guns — maybe. The newest secret weapon — gliders! East and West had managed an uneasy truce in the arms race by banning ail weapons developed before 1900 — and restricting wars to local disputes between corporations or companies and unions.
It was a crazy way of doing things — but it worked…until an ambitious Major upset the apple cart, and threw the world’s peace into deadly peril! In this exciting picture of the next century, veteran science-fiction writer MACK REYNOLDS combines mastery of a unique setting with a fast-action story of combat and intrigue.
