The seventh book in the Kirov Series by John Schettler, Devil's Garden also completed the three book trilogy that was begun with 9 Days Falling. All of the many subplots have now unite here into a new single story line reprising all the original cast and crew of Kirov as they eventually arrive at the same point in history to decide the fate of all the years yet to come. But getting there has been the real fun and excitement in this wonderfully complex and engaging story.
Anton Fedorov and Sergeant Troyak have finally found Orlov, but the German army is coming! Now they must lead a daring assault with Russian Naval Marines in a strugle to get their man before the Germans do. The action thickens as Russian hovercraft and modern AFVs storm ashore with the Marines to face down the advancing German Panzers. And even as the battle rages, Orlov faces Commissar Molla with his one chance to fulfill a simmering personal vendetta.
In 1945, the battlecruiser Kirov has vanished in the midst of the final battle against the US Navy, and now the fate of the Russian Destroyer Orlan is revealed. While Admiral Volsky and Pavel Kamenski search the history for clues of what happened to the Red Banner Fleet, Captain Karpov and his intrepid ship appear in a new era with a chance to change the future history of Russia and the world with a bold new campaign at sea.
Meanwhile, two of the more interesting subplots to develop since Kirov made port at Vladivostok in the bridge novel Men Of War have been given an interesting new spin in this book. Elena Fairchild finally reveals a deep secret to Captain Gordon MacRae, and together they lead the Argos Fire on a strange rendezvous with destiny at a place that has spoken the voice of fate and time throughout ages past. The strange journey of Sir Roger Ames, Duke of Elvington deepens the mystery at Lindisfarne Castle as the clock ticks slowly toward a last fateful hour when the world may be caught up in the final maelstrom of war.
Then, just when Anton Fedorov finally learns the fate of Kirov, the ships number one Fallen Angel, Captain Karpov does something quite unexpected. Now Fedorov must launch one last desperate mission to preserve the timeline of history and prevent the great cataclysm in 2021 from occurring.
