It seems like it's taken me forever to read this book, which it would seem it really should not have been. I really enjoyed this book and I'm disappointed that it's taken me so long to finish it. I am going to put in my "To Read Again" category -- one I don't currently have -- because I really enjoyed it but because it seems to have taken me so long to read I'm not sure how much I actually enjoyed it ... so I need to reread it.

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0312969414, Mass Market Paperback)

Four Japanese nationalists storm Tokyo's imperial palace and behead the emperor. Their goal: to invade Russia and conquer oil-rich Siberia in order to dominate the globe. Soon the world explodes in war, as Japan, Russia and the United States go head-to-head in a struggle that threatens total destruction. Now three men from three different nations must meet their ultimate challenge: to fight as patriots in a war driven by greed and madness--and save the planet from nothing less than a full-scale nuclear attack.

Stephen Coonts' Fortunes of War is an explosive, action-packed thriller.
